So, I remembered something else that I forgot to bring from Ecuador for my biking; Sunscreen! I had also forgotten my specialized bike saddle and bike jersey, which I can do without, but I need sunscreen. I headed out early to hit a local Dollarama to get some. Interestingly, despite Niagara Falls being full of bike trails, the stores and restaurants are not very bike friendly unlike Ecuador. There are very few that have bike posts or anything that I can secure my bike to. Back home, I take my bike into most stores without any issue. This morning I spotted a bike post about 200m from the Dollarama so I pulled up to it, took out my Krypton wire lock, and when I connected it, the mechanism imploded, sending springs and parts flying everywhere. I stood there holding the keys, and all I could do was laugh. It was only the 2nd use for this piece of crap Chinese lock! So now, I need a lock and sunscreen! I now had absolutely no way to secure my bike, and the sun was cooking my brain, so it was time to abort this mission. It was a short ride, but better than nothing I guess.
