At least, that is the story I use when 'just do it' means that the chainsaw is blunt, or in this case, the bike chain was stretched, the chain rings looked like shuriken (throwing stars), and the back tyre had so many nicks and was so worn that I was expecting it to blow at any moment.
So I did not go for that ride, and changed the tyre, changed both chain rings, fitted a new chain and checked the bottom bracket (fine - sealed bearings in those things are fantastic), and 'oiled' the cleats. And then made the best coffee this side of Melbourne (who's to argue?).
I really should grease the headsets on all three bikes,, but that will have to wait for another weekend.
Well, how about the ones that did the ride getting on here and telling us about it?
