Maiden voyage on my new tires this morning after installing them last night. Just some cheapie 35mm tires from Nashbar. Rolled great though. I like 'em a lot so far.

Got them just in time, too. It appears that yesterday on the way home the sidewall on my old rear tire started to tear open. Crisis averted, though, with the new tires. I also took the time to thoroughly clean the drivetrain, relube the chain and clean off all the dirt from the bike. Also determined that the squeaking I've been hearing lately was from a loose bolt on my rear rack. It was a nice, quiet, and fast ride in to work this morning on a clean bike.

Today my Cascadia fenders are due to arrive via UPS. So they'll either be installed before I leave work, or bungeed to my rack/trunk somehow. Either way, by tomorrow morning I'll have fenders on my bike! Bring on the rain!!!
