Don't lend your good bike to a friend who doesn't know how to change gear
! Or if you do, don't go out for a ride with said friend to witness him crunching through every gear change. Despite me trying to drop subtle hints re forward planning, using lower gears rather than grinding, and easing off the pressure on the pedals while changing, he clearly decided his way was best for a 60 mile jaunt. Oh well, I suppose a bit of wear and tear on a chain and cassette isn't such a big deal; but I won't be doing it again in a hurry
