The first thing to do before you start your Spring Bicycle maintence or any other Maintence Session is to Wash and Lube your bike. You results will be much improved.
Here’s a set of brushes you might find handy at a reasonable price.
Odd Bicycling News
I am sad to say this site appears to have died since I wrote this article. I can understand it must have been a lot of work. But it is still worth brosing for the oddities.
Some alternatives that are still active: Total Bike or I Like to Bike
Looking for news about bicyclists, try Bicycling in the News = BitN.
I am not usually a fan of this kind of thing but found myself fascinated by stories like:
Pedaling to Petra – aretz – Tel Aviv,Israel Geographical Tours intends to run bicycle trips to Romania, Morocco and the Republic of Georgia, but their primary destination will be Jordan, … http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/859591.html
When you need a bicycling news fix, give Bicycling in the News = BitN a try, you will find the sad, the ugly, the odd, and the amusing there.
