Flat front from the other day got inside my head. Front of the bike felt squirrely on the way home, as if getting low on air. I kept looking and it was fine. Hooked up the pump/guage when I got home and pressure was what it should be. Checked the QR... everything was and is seated properly. Guess the squirelliness was all in my head. Still a nice ride home.

Good ride in today, too. I think the brake squeal fairy paid my bike a visit last night. One of my weekend projects was going to be cleaning front rim and brake pad and adjusting the toe b/c the squeal from the front brakes was getting embarassing. Well, fast forward to this AM and they didn't make a sound amy time I stopped or slowed along the way to work... Works for me. I seem to be developing some other sort of drivetrain-related mystery noise in its place, though. :-\

Bit of a headwind this AM, but I gladly accepted it since it meant it was still only 66 when I left home at 8:30. Nice and cool for a DC August morning. I tried to relish the cool weather, since the longer term forecast seems to indicate it's going bye-bye this weekend and will be gone for a while.
