Bikes: See my sig...

I got out on my Kuwahara tonight and was running the Racers at 80 psi which made them feel pretty stiff on the new CR18 rims but I had the bike spun out on the way home... for a touring bike it is fairly fast and I just swapped the freewheel and was running a slightly higher top gear as well.

I really think I will like these tyres.

I have done 35km in an hour on the old Marathons with a stripped down bike and usually cruise at around 30 kmh when I am not loaded down, I don't know why people say they are slow rolling and the Racers are noticeably faster, particular when it comes to acceleration and that speaks to their lower weight.
