Getting to age where I gotta do it while I still have the knees for it (IF I still have the knees for it). Towards that end I've been taking the long way home, and planning some all-day expeditions soon as I get a free Saturday just to see how far I get.



Thanks for the suggestion.

Actually I really like Town and Country's, near perfect for my application. In reference to another post in my case I prefer the larger size (2.1??) on account of all the times that rear wheel drops off-of tall curbs.

No pinch flats with tire liners?

Thanks,

Mike
