I have 28s luckily so there shouldn't be an issue with them expanding into the tyre. I'm not sure what the correct pressures should be with this combo so I'll run them at 80psi for now and see how they go.
Side note, I was on my way into town to pick up these bits when I saw a sign less than 2km into my ride that said "Bicycle Bistro", thought it was worth a look and low and behold a cafe/ high end bike shop/ pub bar nestled away in a new commercial development. I could have blown a fortune in there but luckily I only had enough for what I bought above and a few small beers.
@Mike Rotch, is your next post in this thread going to be some awful Harley that will be garaged 10 months of the year?

Considering I neglected to service it once it still spun like the day I got it. The freehub was wobbly and the cassette was practically welded to the body because it'd dug in so much but those can be fixed with spares. If I had the funds I wouldn't hesitate to go with 240s again, I absolutely love them.
I know Hopes though too so I'm looking forward to seeing how the Pro4s compare to Pro2s.

Finally this year I am going to work on redoing the exterior landscaping in the back yard. Previous owners put in bricks stuck in the ground at a diagonal, and I've hated them since moving in. Most have either been knocked loose and out of alignment, or come out of the ground completely.
After looking aroun, I found this rubber Ecoborder stuff at Home Depot, decided to give it a try:
Sold in 4ft sections, ended up ordering 240ft. Wasn't cheap, but it is good quality, durable, flexible and easy to install compared to other types of landscaping.
Also had to order one of these:
The Mini I have already died this week, likely hard drive failure.

Life will have taken some disappointing turns if it ever comes to that!

When you're starting in north Fargo and going further north, there really aren't that many options. It's not like there area streets every block! Doubly so if you also want to include Moorhead because now you need a route that has two bridges over the river.I see they had to get creative in order to reach the 26.2 mile mark.

There were quite a few shirts in this past weekend's sale that I wanted (like the shirt with Senna's helmet, for example) but I only snagged this one. I think I'm getting a handle on this.

More biking stuffs.
Much better, being able to clip into pedals is one of the most significant upgrades you can make performance wise. 👍
Good choice with those in that you can wear normal shoes if you so desire also, are you going to use the clip side and if so do you have shoes yet?
If so just remember you need MTB shoes and cleats for those not road cleats.
