Wow on the Corsas! And you're not a tiny team, right? Those are some fast, light tires. Did you climb on the light tires and ride the flatter sections on the Zipps or HEDs? They all held up OK? We've been running 23c TriComps @140 with a 300 lb. team and they've been great. One pinch flat on a rock the size of my thumb. Must have hit it just right. Been coveting the Corsa clinchers for my single, but can't justify the cost for just riding around.

Great job! I hope I see Chris this winter and can pump him for stories.
