October has just begun. The new season began earlier than usual. The road was once snow covered but the snow on the lane was almost gone. He couldn’t train enough before the snow was gone. So he rode only several kilometres this day. At the end of the training, the wires and the rear derailleur were frozen due to wet snow.
