This morning was damn near brutal. I guess taking the weekend off the bike was too much recovery for me. I pushed too hard and almost made myself super sad.

The ride home was pleasantly wonderful, if super freakin hot. Sunny Southern California. Gotta love it. While you're dripping with sweat.

ctoddrun - Sandpaper/steel wool. spend some time with it. love it. [pad side and rim side.] Brake squeal should get at least a little better. And of course make sure that they're toed in pretty sharply, though it looks like you already did.
