It's gonna be just over 60F tomorrow....can't decide if I'm gonna ride or not. I have a 60F cutoff from riding in the canyons.

When it's over 60, I don't put on my longjohns. Today was 57, but felt like 47 so I wore them. Had to break in my new tires today. I always say I'm not going to wait until the tire's bald before I get new tires, but I always do. This is my front Pirelli Sport Demon before and after.

The dry heat is fine and easy to take. Its when a low pressure system comes and pumps humidity up from the Gulf that things get less than wonderful...

When my tires get like that, I make believe that they are really slicks
