Fornicate!

Somewhere between Davenport and Dubuque the parts connecting the front wheel to the rest of the bike came loose yesterday during the ride back home. They are probably sitting in some ditch along US 61. Fortunately with the style of bike rack I use I didn't lose the whole front wheel. But it will take 1.5 weeks for the shop to get the parts I need to fix the bike.
