Hi guys and gals. For those of you riding regularly - double check your chain tensioning bolts!

I had an epic fail on my road bike - see here:

Thankfully I am largely unhurt..

Short story: Over the years, my drive chain tension bolt on the chain side got stripped. It let go at 70KM/h - causing a fair bit of damage and brusing!
