I was running a little late this morning. I had to swap pedals from my roadie to the commutie. The super-bargain Ritchey mtb pedals I've been using have finally given out. I think I got them for less than $25 on a Nashbar closeout and they've survived several rainy winters. I knew that they were giving out and I've got an order for Shimano 520 pedals coming from probikekit.com but I thought they'd survive the week. Then last night the left one made a really scary crunchy/squeaky noise every turn. I rode home gingerly but didn't get a chance to swap them out until this morning.
Still, I rode in very mellowly today. It's my last commute of the year.
A happy Chanukkah, merry Christmas, a kwazy Kwaanza, a super Solstice, and a prosperous and safe New Year to you all!
