The Missing Link

May 26th, 2010

I rode part of the Burke Gilman Trail known to bikers as the “missing link” on Sunday. It’s the area in Ballard where the trail degrades to markings on busy streets and railroad track crossings.

My ride was cut short by a fall headed up the hill from Golden Gardens. I’m not sure if you’ve spent much time in the middle of the road tangled up in a bike but it’s an embarrassing experience. All I walked away with was a soar, scratched up leg and a bent rear derailleur hanger, which meant the bike had to go to the shop.

I don’t have stats for the ride other than a map so here it is:
