Looking at those photos makes me think I wouldn't have been able to keep up... Were all those taken on the PM loop that I would have bypassed anyway? Hopefully next time I'll be able to make it. Bummed I got sick, but am feeling better now and going on vacation to Boone, NC next week. Taking the B

The thing with the pedal strike, if you are aware of it, it's probably no big deal. I was surprised the first couple times it happened merely, because I have had so few bikes that had any issues with it at all. Since then I've only had it happen in odd circumstances, where other things were goi

I briefly rode 50mm Marathon Supremes and then switched over to 60mm Big Apples. My perception was that the Big Apples were actually "faster" and had less rolling resistance. This is counter to Schwalbe's literature but it was my experience. On Sunday, June 26, 2016 at 4:54:53 PM UTC-5, W

Thoughts on the Barlow Pass: -- This is where I would start. -- Inflate as little as you need for cornering stability and then say in the basic window. -- Their flat protection is in their suppleness, flexing around offending objects and spreading out the load so they are far less likely to pene

I have used Schwalbe Marathon Supremes for commuting for several years. I started with 32s and then moved to 35s. They offer excellent flat protection, durability and relatively light weight compared to the other Marathons. On my old (26") bike I had been using Marathon Pluses, so the Supremes

So much of it depends on your weight and riding style. Compass tires are fantastic but I personally think they're wildly inappropriate for loaded touring unless you're very lightweight, enjoy constantly looking out for obstacles & are very experienced. I've used Compass tires, Schwalbes, and Ri
