Broke a pedal…

Well…after talking about how reliable the bike has been this year, today a pedal broke on the way back from the third ride…just seized up and started screeching and I wonder how? These pedals have sealed bearings so there shouldn’t have been any way that grit could have gotten in them…only had about 8,000 miles on that set but I did have another new set that I bought for the black bike and swapped them for the bad ones…still going to see if I can take it apart and look at it…maybe to salvage them for the black bike…I did get three rides in today and felt pretty good doing it but the wind almost got me off the bike after ride two…it was blowing 20-25 out of the NE so that meant straight into it on the way back…I did get the tacos made today so I’ll have leftovers until next week…okay, have some cleaning to do before the France/Italy soccer match…
