And, thanks to the heavy rain last year, I saw many, many guys riding "race" tires that flatted out. On the ferry back I spoke to one guy who flatted out four times.

Anyway, I'm in again. It's a great ride and I'm hoping for nice weather and an early start.
fyi, rain doesn't cause flats

Sheesh....
1 year doesn't qualify as a 'history'.
