Ordered two new tires for the commuter. Rode the road bike to work today with just a backpack. 3-4 minutes faster. avg speed was 16.8mph. It is so much lighter not carrying panniers in the building. It made me feel like I forgot something. Top speed was 38.5mph on a short hill which interestingly enough is the same top speed I had on the commuter on Monday but the road bike carried the speed much farther down the road. 23 vs 28 tires and less weight too I guess.
I also realized that I had my old cyclocross tires that came on the commuting bike. I could have switch the tires and rode it in. Would you change both tires so they match or just the busted one and ride with a miss match?
I am might get wet on the way home but tomorrow is calling for 80% chance of rain throughout the day. So I figured I would take a chance today....
