Oh, NOW you tell me! I spent Sunday completely cleaning my drivetrain to switch lube types (gonna try White Lightening - anyone have experience?) and installing a new chain on one bike, cleaning another bike, and putting on new tires. Still have the grease under the fingernails...
Then, tonight, I replaced the brake pads on my older bike. Reminder to folks who do their own maintenance - check your pads for wear - when the notches have worn off, it's time for new shoes! Actually, those who don't do their own work, check anyway, and get the bikes into the shop! Once again, I'm filthy!
