Ooh, good to know! I will need tires again eventually.

Years ago, Vittoria made a tire called the Voyager Hyper which people here recommended highly. I bought a pair from an outfit in the UK. They arrived, and I was very disappointed because they were heavy and the treads were thick. I put them on, and they were like magic. Go figure. In fact, I still have them. Too bad they're out of production now. I have them in 35 or 37 mm width, I can't remember which.
