It's so bad Teslas won't run if you turn off surveillance.
That said, and more on topic.
Something makes a "ping" every time my back wheel goes round.
Not so when I dismount and spin the wheel. I've tapped all the spokes,
none appear loose.
Any ideas?

click when flexed? Did you find broken spoke? Those two are
the most the likely to fit your description.
I have a Garmin cadence sensor on the crank. It is the Type 2 held onto with the rubber holder. It is a little high on the crank and every rotation of the crank it makes a squeaking as my shoe rubs up against the rubber.

Flex spokes in pairs with your hands. Do the spoke crosses
click when flexed?
They all do. Rather, they make a grinding sound. They all have a
slight layer of corrosion. I've never lubed my spokes, didn't think it
was necessary...
Did you find broken spoke?
No broken spokes. Wheels are true, no wobbles.
Those two are the most the likely to fit your description.
Thanks. I'll get a friend to listen for me. Maybe she'll hear
something I didn't.

You can place a drop of oil at the crossings and test ride
to confirm that's the source of noise.
If so, there's no simple cure. Low spoke tension allows
more wheel flex/spoke deformation and the crosses abrade
with a notch where they touch. Next time you rebuild, use a
tensiometer to rim manufacturer's spec.

OK, I put a small drop of SAE 140 oil on each crossing. Thick
so it doesn't run all over the place. Bar heavy rains, I'll be doing
my 10km tomorrow morning. I'll report back.
If so, there's no simple cure. Low spoke tension allows

If I can find a mechanic that has one. I live in the interior

bike shops.

Well, there's this:

I don't doubt this for a moment but I know we've all
seen some pretty iffy cyclist behaviour in cities (or
lotsa places, for that matter).
It could very well be the decision making software
just can't react quickly enought to darting cyclists.
I don't know the particulars of the case, just
bloviating about it in general.
I wonder how the law will end up adjudicating cases
like this when a machine is one of the drivers?
(We need our Seattle lawyer guy posting again...I
forget his name, though.)
