Leaky front hub

I just noticed yesterday that I've got some type of fluid leaking from around the manual locker on my right front wheel. I'm going to investigate this weekend, but any thoughts as to where I should start?

Thanks.

Could be the bearing grease ia old and has thinned out from the heat of the bearings and is leaking. check your bearing and re-pack them as needed.

Whoops....depending on where exactly its coming from...do what ckirwan514 says. Brake calipers. Don't need leaky brake fluid.

Thanks, I check the fluid in the reservoir tonight when I get home to see if it's low. Both of those suggestions sound pretty good.
