When you break a spoke it is usually not that big of a deal. Open the brakes and keep going. Also as I learned today don’t wait to stop as soon as you can
and secure the remains of the spoke or this can happen to you:
1 shredded derailleur (thank goodness for e-bay)
1 bent dropout (thank goodness for the Bike Coop here in a couple days)
1 twisted chain (thank goodness for chain tools and a spare I can use later)
Ugh.
