Have fun on the ride. Short tours are a great way to become introduced to the touring spectrum.

This will be my first big, organized ride. Not many miles, but great trails, 3 states and a lot of fun for sure.

I just bought 700x28 Vittoria Zaffiro tires( around 380-400 grams ). Great reviews, decent flat resistance, much lighter then my current 700x38 Specialized Infinity Armadillos (around 700 grams! ). I also bought Forté Road Schrader Tube 700c x 28-32...yup...you can tell I don't like presta valves ;-) Chicago...here I come!
