Well, the tires actually have studs, not spikes.
The roads were wet, this morning, and the temps were in the mid 20s, so I swapped wheels over to the studded tires before leaving the house. I think it was the right move. The overpasses were pretty slick, even though the rest of the roads were just wet.
I had forgotten the first rule of studded tire riding: Don't get in a hurry. I rode pretty hard, in both directions, and still took an extra 6 minutes on both legs of the commute.
Tomorrow, back to regular tires.

Sorry about the word verification. I know you hate it...I hate it, too. But, the Spambots are suddenly coming out of the woodwork, and this is my first line of defense against them.
Anonymous comments are still gladly accepted.
So, all humans are welcome. Spambots can go to Hell.
