Clicking noise in front driver side wheel while driving and brakeing???

lately, i've noticed a clicking noise comming from my front drivers side wheel. i hear it while driving slow and during brakeing. it seems to be a little louder while breaking though. kinda sounds like how a kid would put a card in his spokes on a bike. click click click, you get the picture. does anyone know what this could be, and/or how i can stop this? thank you.

Could the wheel bearings need a repacking (or replacement)? I get the same click click click in cold weather, yet my bearings get repacked every year (when I do brakes). I have no idea what it is... but it seems that after I drive for a while, the noise is gone. I don't hear it in hot weather.

Brakes sticking? Just before the squealers finally hit yesterday, I've gone through about two weeks of clicking just after I let off the brakes. Just a guess...
