So, had some time to work on the bikes today since Tracy worked the night shift. Got the headset working without any play, which was great, but again, while wiping the bike down, found a broken spoke on the rear wheel. Figures. I won't even try and fix this myself, at least this time, and I'll bring it to a bike shop tomorrow to hopefully get fixed. It's only one spoke, so hopefully I can get it done quickly. I do want to know how to do it myself, eventually. Would be good to know how. But that's more tools for trueing a wheel. Also started on the brake/shifter replacement on the mtb, but had some trouble with the grips. Apparently rubbing alcohol or water works wonders. Also went for a run after work today. That was rough. Last night had leftovers for dinner, watched Smallville and How I Met Your Mother, finished vacuuming, and sent the wrong size extra cleats back to Zappos. Also today looked into what I need to get the mtb into more of a hauler, baskets and stuff. More stuff to buy, but not needed, so it goes to the wish list.
