I'm looking forward to trying the Randonneur (and Rubino) as well as some Paselas.
Fuuu, I kind of got talked into these tires when I was @ an LBS visiting my sister on vacation. I'm Mr. "never buys anything until I've read every review on it far and wide online first" , but I got caught up against the ropes on this one. I figured "eh, they're continentals, how bad can they be?". I've only put about 50 miles on them so far in good weather with no issues but I've read a lot of mixed reviews about them. I was debating springing for some Gatorskins but the salesperson was pretty pro UltraSport.

Ah well, I guess I'll just see how they do and get some Rando's next.
