Nice ride home last night. Warmer than I expected. Should have gone w/o the long sleeves. Cooler ride in this AM -- 50 F -- and windy -- 15 mph headwind the whole way in.

One thing bugging me real bad now is the constant noise emanating from my bottom bracket, which is downright embarrassing at this point. I haven't done anything about it for a number of reasons, not least of which is that I should have already gotten my Surly LHT frame by now, which will be getting a new bottom bracket. Frame and build parts ordered 1.5 months ago, but still don't have it. Getting tired of dealing w/ LBS on it. Oh well. I guess I'll appreciate the new ride that much more when it's built up. Until then, fellow DC commuters. If you hear a clankety bottom bracket that can't be serviced, it's probably mine. And I'm painfully aware it shouldn't be making those noises.
