You go Dog. How is the tire wear? When we worked at PCC we wore out more bike tires than car tires.

Its doing good so far. I’ll probably get around 3000 out of them, so they’ll need replacing once i get to the East Coast. brakes are a greater concern, I’ve already changed em once. The wheels themselves will probably be about toast by the end of the trip, since I’m using cantilever brakes instead of discs they will eventually eat through the metal and weaken the rims.
