Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Always worth checking unless it’s not a breakaway.
My Paramount clicks randomly too, and I ignore it.

Chatsworth is an area with a lot of warehouses and industrial buildings. It was all over the news in 2014 because the city was trying to eliminate some of the huge porn studio business there. They imposed new rules and production was way down at one point but I don't know how it's going now.

A couple of those cover a historic event.

"Tyler Gilbert became the first pitcher in 68 years to throw a no-hitter in his first big league start, lifting the Arizona Diamondbacks over the San Diego Padres 7-0 Saturday night with the record-tying eighth no-hitter in the majors this season.The last to accomplish the feat in his first start was Bobo Holloman of the St. Louis Browns on May 6, 1953. Bumpus Jones also did it in his major league debut with the Cincinnati Reds on Oct. 15, 1892, and Theodore Breitenstein threw one in his first start for the Browns on Oct. 4, 1891."

I was diagnosed this year and had multiple episodes since but with no riding because of the sciatica I will have to battle that once the sciatica subsides. Good luck, I can't offer any advice as I'm still new to it.
