Good Karma Grease

I was riding through a quiet Germantown neighborhood when I caught sight of a couple of kids walking a bike down the sidewalk. From the road, I could see what looked like a dropped chain hanging from the right pedal. I decided to turn around to help. Sure enough, it had fallen off to the outside and wedged between the front derailleur cage and large chainring. Much to the amazement of the two boys, I yanked it out and got it back on the chainring as normal. I explained to them that it wasn’t too hard to fix- just a little greasy. They thanked me a couple of times… I was tempted to tell them to not forget about me when they got their drivers licenses, but I just told them “you’re welcome” and rode off…
