Debris causes headaches

Having done so many miles in the jellybean,  it's beginning to show signs of wear and tear...namely the transmission...

This was confirmed after having had a small stick jam in the rear derailleur and the chain drop between the rear derailleur and spokes,.... requiring "quite a bit of effort" ...& some foul language (whilst stopped on the side of the M7 cyclepath),  to extricate the chain and get myself mobile again.

Something is bent out of shape ..as there were several stops on the way back home, to adjust the derailleur ,to try and get good shifting of the rear gears...

I got them "tolerable"...good for high speed...not so flash for climbing..
