+1. Slow down in the turns and you can still go fast in a straight line. Watch out for paint/sewers.
Bontrager Race Lite Hard Case are durable and flat free for me. They have slick centers and grippy edges. I ride (conservatively) in the rain with them all the time--today comes to mind. It rains 6 months a year here, in the afternoons.
