Finally got the Hillborne out on Sunday. 30 miles. High in the mid-60's. (Supposedly a record.) Quite a few folks out on bikes. Rode over to the new Twins stadium. Then into the wind for a number of miles. Speed was slow. That's normal. And bars way high up there. Definitely nice having the option of drops into the wind. Missed that yesterday.
But, wow, after a winter of wider tires, 40's seem positively skinny.
