Something to say about soft tires and low pressures. I rode 40 miles today on The Italian Huffy, with the 38mm Compass Barlow Pass. I picked up a thumbtack in my front tire (40 psi) and heard it going around 1xR. I stopped - it wasn't completely planted, but it was deep. I was spooked pulling it out expecting to hear the air come with it. But it didn't puncture the latex tube. I've always read that latex would stretch around sharp objects without puncturing. I made it home, and it's still holding pressure tonight.
