"Holy Shit, My Chain Has Come Off!!!"

My bloody chain came off today as I was coming down a (luckily) small hill! My life flashed before my eyes, fortunately I've not done much in my life so in a fraction of a second my foot was on the ground bringing me to a stop a couple hundred feet later. I knew the thing was a bit loose cause it has stretched but it really didn't seem bad enough for it to come off doing a simple skip. It made me think about hooking up a brake, what with the using my hip to stop the other week and now this. I have come to the conclusion that a bit of death defying danger is a good thing and I don't need a brake. :-p This is worth a quick read.
