Turned out nice, Earl - I like that!
Continental Race Kings are ace!! Depending what the soil/terrain is like in Cumbria of course. They work great in my neck of the woods - soft, compliant and a fast rolling tread pattern that works well in all but deep clay soils and mud. Weight is good too, even on the £14.99 cooking version. I really rate them, which is odd since I've loathed every other Conti I've ever ridden!
