I decided no blog entry today, as we are in Trier for 3 nights (2 full days) and this site says they want this to be a bicycle blog, not a "what I did on my summer holidays" blog.

One item I will relate is getting my bike fixed. A super repair place attached to the train station here is recommended. They found that a cable routed down the inside of the front fork was rubbing on the wheel. I was assuming the front disk, and did requisite hard brake application when running downhill fast to clean off the pads - to no avail.

How much I asked? He pointed to the tip jar. I put in 5 euros and rode away silently.
