This week, I have been testing my touring accessories on the bike; map holder, rack bag, and water containers. 
I have had some trouble with a spoke coming loose on my rear wheel.  Last night I installed the spoke with some non-permanent locktite compound.  This morning, I deliberately went over some rough spots on my training ride, and the spoke held, so I hope I have solved that problem.
I gave the drive train a thorough cleaning and oiling.
Departure for Montreal tomorrow morning.
