Some of our rail to trail is DEEP sand! I have been on it with moderately aggressive tires and would not want slicks. On the other hand, some of the days are actually on paved roads. I know I will miss my roadie then! I can get tire recommendations from some people I know who have done the ride.

Thanks for your comment about wieght vs lock out. You are right, one of my main complaints about the comfort bike is the weight of it. The shocks on it do not lock out but man she is a big on the heavy side. Of course you know she is saying the same thing about me!!!!
