No bike shop. I removed the derailleur with an Allen wrench set
from a dollarish store. The floppy chain skipped into other gears
and out of gear the entire 16 km 90 min. home.
It took 8 hours to rehydrate.
I found a $15 hanger on Amazon carefully measuring the critical
dimensions on the screen.
In the meantime I will be stuck in one gear but at least it won't
flip off the free hub.

Do you have a photo?
You're taking an interest in cycling at last?
I have had a keen interest in cycling for years.
Same here, as well as a passing interest in engineering repairs.
It would be interesting to see what sort of repair was made to a set of
Derailleurs using Araldite (or whatever).
I'd also like to see how rounded the gear teeth are after 16 km of
constantly changing without a derailleur.
