Nice commute this morning, relatively warm and cloudy with little wind. I rode my full-bore touring bike today because my regular commuter is in the shop. I decided to remove the dynamo wheelset over the weekend since the days are getting so much longer but forgot that the rims are much wider than the replacement wheels, so the brakes were way out of adjustment. The bike needed new brake pads anyway, so I dropped it off at the shop over the weekend.

I swapped out a bunch of parts on my bikes over the weekend. Swapped saddles on a couple of my bikes so I could try to some different colors of bar tape, just to mix it up. Swapped tires and/or wheelsets on two bikes to use faster, lighter tires. Now that winter is winding down, I feel the urge to speed up the pace. For the same reason, I'm mothballing the dynamo lights and wheel for the time being.
