Like many people, I also started cycling again during lockdown a few years ago, but even if I hadn't I don't think I would have struggled this time around. The theme clue didn't help much in disguising the matter and as soon as I found the chain I was off to the finish line. There were no obstacles on the road to worry about and I solved the whole thing in about five minutes.
