Quick post-upcoming maintenance and first rain ride for 2017

I'm sure my one or two readers are wondering why two almost completely unrelated items make up the title.

Well, tonight the rain came early, so I was caught about 5 miles from home in steadily worsening rain.  Fortunately, we've had a bunch of rain lately, so it wasn't very slick.  Fortunate-because my rear tire is worn down along the center from all the commuting and freeway miles I do.  So this weekend I am pulling the rear wheel and having the rear tire that showed up today (and got rained on, how ironic!) put on.  Last rear tire change for Miss Swail, too.
