I'll reassess whether to break out the slicks or not after seeing how the ride home is.
I had the same debate with myself with the studs versus the slicks. I couldn't really decide so I rode with what was already on my bike, studs. Had my slick been on, I probably would have rode it. Now I'm considering a knobby that isn't too aggresive. But that will mean changing a tire.
