Still freezing? Come on!

Photo: I managed to sneak this shot from the Quivira Viaduct's apex. More available here (various levels of abstractness, most are dreck, with long exposure times while riding):

This morning, it's still a little below freezing. I'm still not feeling 100% so I went to the bus as usual. The colder temperatures are making the all-season SwissStop brake pads on my road bike a little harder than usual. They work great in wet or dry weather, but as they harden up, they start to eat at the rims a bit, trapping aluminum bits in the pads much like my crappy OEM pads used to. I was getting a lot of grinding noise from my fronts this morning. I'll probably clean them over lunch.

  1. Damn, that cold/virus really kicked your butt I guess. But you are sticking with it. Cool.

    BTW, I tagged you. A six word memoir. Your life in six words. It was tougher than I thought it would be.
