I am not a racer but for weekend warrior riding I'm quite happy with 700x28 Gatorskins at about 70psi (I'm 150lbs). I'm sure there are better tires out there, but for training and just enjoying the weekend on non pristine roads I am very impressed with them for the money.

Flats aren't the end of the world, but given a choice I will pick puncture protection in a tire every time.
