Has anyone... in the history of the world... ever gotten a bb30 to be 100% silent... for more than a week at a time?

I preregistered for one race each day at Tulsa. I signed up for the earlier Sat./Sun race so, if I'm feeling insane, I can do day-of for the later masters field.

Just got an interview at a place an hour from chicago (Rosalind Franklin). Kinda conflicted about going. I wish I'd heard back from the 3 schools I just interviewed at. Ugh.

I've made the decision that I will begrudgingly be a Pats fan today. Going to pregame with some Sam Adams, Clam Chowder, and Dropkick Murphys. Its gonna be wicked.

The superbowl is on and I hate football...time to go grocery shopping and revenge buy all the milk and bread before the next snow storm hits.
edit: this is what I am going to do to all the milk and bread.

I don't know the exact part that goes in my frame, the bike shop mechanic ordered it and installed. The company is wheels mfg.
Today I went through a gate and found .3mi at a 21% average, topped out at 36% and was by far the steepest thing I've ever ridden. I kept hearing this loud grinding sound coming from the back wheel and couldn't figure it out and it seemed so hard to turn the crank over. On the way down the tire bead came out of the rim and the tube exploded. I guess the sound I was hearing was the tire rubbing in the brake? This ****ing bike is always broken. It's so hard to like it.

Lots of hating on something a majority of America likes, by guys who love something most Americans are annoyed by.
I get it.

Deep dish wheels with powertap, bought. So now I have no excuses left for being slow.
Edit: if any of you dudes are still in the market for power...performance is selling their power wheelsets for 20% off WITH free shipping. You can pick up a pair of training hoops with joule 1.0 for $640 total, but the sale ends in like an hour...
