Going on a ride with my son -- something easy, or easy for him. It is never easy for me riding with him. He generates too many watts.

I just put on some new Conti 4Seasons, which were an incredibly tight fit on the Ardennes. At first, I thought I had mistakenly bought 650B -- but I finally got them on. No flats today! I don't want to be struggling with those things on the roadside. Hope they're not to slippery with the mold release.

Weather: overcast, wet but not raining. Cold but not freezing. Typical PNW winter day and a fine day for the rain bikes. I'm going to check with NORAD when I get back and see how Santa is progressing -- or maybe check Santa's Strava page.

Good luck on your ride! I'd hate to have a puncture with a tire that's a bear to get off. I did have a pair of tires that were extremely hard to mount on one pair of wheels I had. I figured that if I punctured with those tires on it'd be in far less than ideal circumstances for a roadside repair. therefore I moved those tires to another pair of wheels that they were a LOT easier to mount onto.

Cheers
