You likely already know this but here is my free advice for this lovely Friday: Whenever you are checking and adjusting your spokes be sure and use a truing stand (or a balancing stand with a suitable device for tracking the rim as is turns). Alternatively you can make a reasonable check with the wheel on the bike by getting the wheel of the ground and slowly spinning the wheel while tapping each spoke for a similar "ring". A loose spoke will "thud" instead of "ring"...just tighten a loose one up enough (go slow) until it "rings" like the others.
