Denise, what tires are you using? Have you ever used Gatorskins or Armadillos, and if so, did you think they are worth the weight/expense? I ask because I first used Bontrager light raicng tires and put 3000 miles on them before wearing them out and my only flat was because I ran over a broken bottle neck. Now I'm using Michelin racing tires for 1500 miles- no problems so far, but I keep thinking- what if??
