It's really my favorite part. I forgot what day it was until I read the acronym. I was like "ha, that's hilarious. Wait a minute..." And skipped to the last paragraph.

But you will probably enjoy July. We’re breaking 90 almost every day here. Sweating starts early this year.

if it makes you feel any better, we've had an unusual amount of days in a row without breaking 60 either. today and i think one other day this week were the first genuinely nice low 60's days in a while.

The cusco pedal is an absolute dream. A PITA to install. But that, plus the new shoes, its an amazing combo.

Did you removed the pedal for ease installation? Or just crawled in?

Are we talking about the pedal cover? I installed mine years ago in like 10 minutes. I think it would take you 5 times longer to remove the pedal to do it.

I did not know you could remove it.

Took me a good 45 mins because the top bracket was messing with the way the screws went thru the holes. Bottom one was easy. It was just an uncomfortable position and my back was making my legs cramp.
