Happy Bike to Work Day! I know some of you have it on different days, but I do believe today is the nationally recognized event. Had a great one here. Overcast and threatening rain here. I was the only bike I saw until I met up with the local Advocacy group on their way to the State House (where we ride down Main St for some coffee and donuts).
Last night, in preparation, I did my first hub rebuild. I've been chasing down a squeak for the past couple of weeks. I was convinced it was the drivetrain because I would only hear it when I put the bike under load but nothing I did with the chain or cranks fixed it...so I thought maybe it was a hub. Bingo! And for the icing on the cake, my wheel didn't fall apart on me when riding in!
