My brakes were rubbing on one side too. I adjusted them easily with the screws mentioned above. It's an easy fix. I do have a big bike maintenance book I always refer to when I need to work on one of my bikes so, that helps a lot.

I need to get one of these - I have never been what one might consider mechanically inclined...but I need to get over that.

I swung by my LBS after work today - I took my bike to work in my trunk. The mechanic looked at it and said it was fine - and then he showed me what to do if it happens again. Apparently what I did the other day fixed it anyway.
So now I know my brakes are fine - and they did not charge me a dime. That was nice - but of course everything took no more than 5 minutes. It was basically just for my peace of mind anyway.
