Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Winter Tyres
Can anyone recommend a good set of tyres for a winter training road bike. Im not fussed about folding or solid tyres as its not a racing bike afterall.
Hope that someone can be of help!!!

Why not just use the same tires you use in the summer?

Define winter? Winter tires for South flordia would be ProRace3's. Winter tires for me (northern UP of michigan) is a cross or mountian bike with studded tires.
