Hmmm. Same route as last night. Same temps as last night. Same bike as last night, apart from the wheels/tires (Mrs. Peel, this time with tubs). Same time as last night - only 13 seconds faster over 22 miles.
Okay, so, not the tires. Which leaves the bike, and the motor.
Funny thing is, the last two days I've just felt uncomfortable on this bike. I couldn't get comfy, and I've never had that problem with this bike for all that it's 40 years old. I also don't remember it being so hard-riding, either.
I think I'll take the Litespeed tomorrow, and see how THAT feels.
