Hi, Mugs - nice setup!
perhaps of interest to you - new 700x28 Continental Touring tires. Faster than the 35s - might be worth a look if you want to get something in between what your racing bike has and what you're riding now.

I was thinking of something like that but the tires came with the rims so I will use them untill they are worn out. I think 700 x 28 or 30/32 may be the ticket for in-city commutting but maybe a larger (the 35's) will be needed for touring. Then again my touring gear will pretty much be my Bping gear so were looking at 20 pounds for a 4-5 day trip, (that inlcudes food and water) so I may not need the larger tires because my bike won't be so "loaded" <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
AAHH UL Bike touring here I come.
