Had to be at work at 7:00 this AM, so very early commute. Wow, so many cars even then! Anyway, just a bit drizzly, and I'm totally geared up for rain, turned out to be a bit excessive.

Riding my Rocky Mountain after having gone fixed all last week. Wow, such a difference. Pedaling just felt bizarre for the first while, my legs were jerky, having got used to the support of the pedal coming up under power. Lit up like Christmas with my Down Low Glow, DiNotte, and PB Superflash. That was nicely confidence-inspiring.

Though it feels like a tank compared to the iro, the big tires were a major help against a stealthy enemy: horse chestnuts! I must have squirted a half-dozen to the side under my wheels. Pok! Pok! Pok!. On the fixie's skinny tires I think I would have gone down. So, variety is a good thing.
