Looks like rain in the forecast for our NYC afternoon. Yay. Hopefully it'll be light rain and I can still squeeze in a spin.

WhyFi question for you - what do I need to service my BBRight tool wise other than the Shimano crank tool and torque wrench? Was going to grease / replace the bearings since it's getting creaky. I'm tired of paying to have someone do this for me so I figured I'd give it a shot.

It was super wet this morning (TWSS) so I decided to go out on lunch when it dries a bit. Hope you get a chance to go.

If it's the old standard 2-piece BB, it might be a better bet just to replace with a screw-together or one-piece shell, rather than investing in the tools to do the bearings and then having to get another set to do the shell if it's still creaking. I sure wish you could rent this stuff!

I signed up for an event that's in 3 weeks but for some reason that I can't remember now I did not purchase the additional event cancellation insurance which was remarkably stupid of me given, you know, everything. Anyway at this point I probably won't attend because of the surge in cases which I doubt will be any better in 3 weeks so I guess I'm just out $70.
