Last week I rode my Commuter bicycle around Saint Paul and Minneapolis, took some photographs and mapped the ride on mapmyride.  I posted the photos on Flickr, but thought I would add a more thorough presentation here.  After continuing to have problems with my rear wheel, a professional mechanic diagnosed a problem owing to my frame being bent - the quick release skewer was not clamping to the frame of the bicycle itself, but only clamping to the axle of the wheel.  After a short repair, the wheel has held in place with greater efficacy.  Money well spent.  The persistent wind, eighty and ninety degree days have given way after a thunderstorm complete with heavy rain and hail.
