Well, it wasn't quite as hot as yesterday but the humidity is back, I'm still sweating after cooling off and wiping down with wet wipes. My right knee has been a little tight and sore, didn't feel like I could really hammer this morning but, why would I want to do that in this heat anyway? So, I took it moderately easy so as not to aggrevate it. Looks like my new wheels got here just in time, I noticed a knocking feeling/noise as I was wheeling my bike into the elevator so, I checked the rr. wheel and, sure enough, it's loose again. I had just had it re built last week-this included a new axle as the old one was bent. I can't believe how unreliable this wheel has become. I think I'll either have them adjust it one more time and put the wheels away as backups or, get rid of the hub altogether and rebuild the wheels with Ultegra for my wife's bike-frustrating.
