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

This looks like a pretty good deal. Two GP5000 tires and two tubes for $109.

Looks like there is a consensus on the Continental tires. I've been away for about 8 years and recently started riding again. Back in the day I rode Vittoria Rubino Pro Slicks. Never had a problem with them other than the very rare flat. I have noticed that tire technology has improved greatly over the last few years. Lots of new anti-puncture stuff in them now. I'm liking my new Conti GP 4 Seasons. Think I'll try the 5000s on the next go around.
