Hot but nice clear morning, was up to 77F by the time I rolled into work. I usually don't bother bringing a water bottle but remembered to bring one today, glad I did as I'm going to need that water on hand in case I need to squirt some on my sun sleeves for the evaporative cooling effect tonight when it'll be in the mid-80s.

I took my fenders off yesterday and swapped my 23c front Michelin Pro 4 Endurance for the 25c. The difference in comfort was huge. I'd put the front fender back on to test for rubbing (only a tiny amount) and forgot to take them off. Went out for a block and then remembered only the front fender was on, which looked silly enough for me to turn back and quickly dump it back in my garage. That's the nice thing about the Crud Roadracers, super easy to take off. There were times this spring when I was doubting whether the weather outlook would ever be conducive to running fenderless, but I think summer has really started now.
