Bikes: Surly Cross Check

Nice, what tires are you riding? I can't do that in my conti 4000s.
700x35 knobby Kenda cross tires. They go a long way towards keeping me off the trainer.
Not such a stupid video, I'm riding 700x35 Kenda slicks and there is no way I can get that type of speed in snow. I haven't been dumped (yet), but the back wheel gets very, very squirrelly when riding on ice or snow. I went with slicks for my first year of winter commuting because I was worried about snow building up in the treads, it appears I made an incorrect decision.
