Youre equipment may have all been the same but that you were cycling in a group suggests that maybe your pacing could have been different? You may have been working ever so slightly harder than you usually would without noticing it.
Or perhaps time for a new pair of shoes? I dont know about hot feet, but i definitely get some agitation when my soles have worn in from skating - i dont use cleats so i have no idea how that might translate to those.
No cleats here, either, but my pace was probably faster than normal. Great thinking 👌
Complete spitballing on my part - was the sun very strong on one side or the other? Even the shadow from your bike might have kept one foot cooler with the other one having direct sunlight exposure.
The sun was strong, and I thought that it must have been from that, but the sun was opposite of the foot that was getting hot!
But I've been on much longer rides where the sun will be at one side of my body for hours on end, and this has never happened. Kind of freaked me out just how hot my feet felt!
