Coolest commute of the season- low 60s. Yeah, for you yankees that's tropical but for my thinned-out Texas blood it was a little cool. I rode in gym shorts and a t-shirt. Another cooler would require a long-sleeve shirt I think.

The commute was tough. Conditions were fine, but since I drove to work yesterday I took a ride yesterday evening after I got home- about 18 miles worth, and on my old road bike so my posture different than I'm used to with my hybrid or English roadster. As a result I was just kinda stiff this morning and never really felt.... right. I got to work okay, and probably not too much slower than normal, but it was a struggle.
