Well THIS can’t be good?! What started out as a creaky-squeaky sound a few days ago has now become this?! That piece is surely NOT supposed to be sticking out like that & hitting my ankle as I pedal. Plus, the right pedal is no longer level, so my ankle is twisting in a weird way with every rotation. Looks like we’re headed to the bike shop today?! I know I ride a lot & pedal hard… but this??? ouch.

UPDATE :
It would have been an expensive $$$ repair … but apparently I’m not the first person this has happened to?! It’s actually covered under my TREK bike warranty as there is a “TREK warranty recall” of some sort?!!! So, I will be without my bike for a few days, but the repair will be FREE!!! whew…
