Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Schwalbe Ultremo R.1 tires for cheap on Bonktown

just a heads up. I know these are somewhat popular tires. Noticed that Bonktown has them for $34.99 right now, for the next 37 minutes, so jump now if you want em!

I ordered 2 a while back and one this morning to replace one of the previous two that suffered a sidewall cut early in life. Fantastic riding tire but very little flat protection. Pair them with latex or Performance Lunar Light tubes and you have one sweet riding tire. Reserve for race use.

Yep pbk has them for 27 each with free tubes, shipping, and reward points which translate to $10 off with a new account.
