    Today I had a bookend of punctures, yes one on the way in and another on the way home. The one this morning hi-lighted that the tyre isn't tough enough for the South Coast. This evenings though would have beaten nearly all roads tyres except for maybe this one http://www.wiggle.co.uk/schwalbe-durano-plus-performance-road-tyre/ which I'm sorely tempted to try. It got me thinking about the Roubaix Sportive & what tyres to use, Tubs, clinchers or tubeless. I'll have to do some research but I'll use a 25mm for sure, although if I could get them to fit 27mm sure would add some comfort.

    My obsession with the Classics from Feb through to Oct will be covered on here. I love the races in Belgium, in particular the Tour of Flanders (Ronde van Vlaanderen). Paris Roubaix along with the Giro di Lombardia are my favourite Monuments. My own exploits will be on here also, which are small and mean nothing to the wonder of the races over the pave.
