Decisions...

My sport-utility bicycle, the venerable Kona Jake the Snake, has a problem.  Last year if you recall my Michelin Jets developed a hole in them the size of the Grand Canyon.  Being pretty much worn out, I replaced the pair with Continental Twisters.  Thinking the big ol' knobbies would be good for the Katy Trail.


Turns out I was wrong.  The big ol' knobbies are just a giant pain in my ass.  Buzzy on the road, buzzy on the Katy.  Buzzy everywhere but grass, which I wouldn't know much about because I rarely ride on grass.


So now I'm thinking of putting some Contintenal Contacts on there, or at any rate something a little smoother.  Tires.  They're very important.
