| Comments: 0.5 AP. Checked out my front wheel... the sound is still there. It seems to me that the axel is shot. After work tomorrow, I'm going to the LBS here in Eureka for either a repair or a new front wheel. I just can't do a metric century this weekend with that noise. |

| Comments: 2.0 AP. After work, rode to the LBS in Eureka. They repacked the axle with grease and tightened my headset. Took the bike back on the road and... the thumping noise was STILL THERE!! I'm perplexed. Looked at archived blog on Odd Wheel Noise in BJ. They said to remove the rim tape and shake out any gravel or rust. Tomorrow, I'll go back to the shop and get a roll of rim tape. We'll see if that does the trick. |

| Comments: 2.0 AP. After work I went to the LBS to get rim tape. I saw in BJ archives where odd noises from wheels may come from gravel or rust bits in the hollow part of the rim. To remove, take off rim tape and shake it out of the rim holes. Well, I did that and also lubed the spokes where they criss-crossed one another to eliminate the possibility of rubbing noises. I even swapped out the tube. THE NOISE IS STILL THERE!!! I guess I'm going to have to suffer through it tomorrow on the Tour of the Unknown Coast. Fellow cyclists will probably avoid me like the plague when they hear that annoying noise. |

| Comments: 32.0 AP. Great Tour of the Unknown Coast. My cycle computer fell off my bike on a bumpy descent. Rode back about 1/2 mile to find it (St. Anthony came through once again). But, my cycle computer zeroed itself out. So, I had to reconstruct that portion. Plus, I had to reconstruct the mileage of the rest of the ride, because the wheel size went back to default, and I forgot to reset that. Good grief. The good news is that although the thumping noise in the front wheel actually got worse during the ride, during a descent on the Avenue of the Giants, I heard a "snap," and the noise disappeared as suddenly as it had appeared (just like Captain Ron at the end of the movie). Fierce northerly headwind for the return leg of the ride, I hooked up with a couple to paceline back -- thank goodness! Turns out that the guy was commissioned in the Navy from Nebraska NROTC the same year and month that I did from OU NROTC! |

| Comments: 2.5 AP. At lunchtime I rode to Eureka's version of the Bike to Work Day rally. They had about 40 or 50 people there. They gave away many prizes: gift certificates, lights, other safety equipment, and the grand prize, a $140 flourescent yellow and reflective windbreaker. I had to leave midway through the drawings because of a 1 PM meeting I had to attend. It was fun nevertheless. |

| Comments: 14.0 AP. Rode to Arcata's Adventure's Edge bike shop for their Saturday ride. One young cyclist, James, had a handlebar moustache nearly like mine. I had a gal take our picture. Rode with the group of about a dozen for 4 miles until we hit the hills. I couldn't keep the pace on my heavy hybrid vs. their carbon fiber road bikes. Broke off and stopped at the Arcata Plaza, where the Farmer's Market was in progress. |
