OT: Reno2Cino anyone else?

[Alexandre Passos]

Anyone else (I'm in!) doing reno 2 mendocino this round? https://www.eventbrite.com/e/2016-reno-to-mendocino-a-california-odyssey-tickets-26107864325 

It's next weekend (labor day weekend). 5 days this year so somewhat less intense.

But isn't that when Murphy implies it will all be fine ('all downhill', '100% paved', etc.)? I don't think I've ever known Murphy to imply something might _not_ be 'chill'.

Anyway, Reno to Cino is all downhill (except for a few rollers maybe?) so I'm sure you'll be fine.

[Peter Colijn]

Oh and Alex I assume you're riding it on the single speed?

[Alexandre Passos]

I'm riding it on the cx bike. Though I did get terribly tempted to buy this sscx I saw for sale at work...

Best tire is 700 x 45mm. 700 x 42mm then 700 x 40mm. 700 x 38mm will work, as will 700 x 35mm but you'll find it pretty rough in places.

One day I'll get a non-mountain-bike which can fit 45s. Probably not in a week though. 40 in the front and 36 in the back is the best I can do for this.

You'll be fine. I've done it on 32mm.

Murphy "700x45mm is best" Mack and Lina "23c for life" Mårtensson on the same thread at last!

Yeah I think you should do it on 23s, Alex.

(and it's mm by the way, not c)

[Alexandre Passos]

Now how many psi, that's the big question.

[Lina Mårtensson]

I'm gonna say at least 20.

[Alexandre Passos]

Ok. So I'll run 23mm tires at ~20psi on my singlespeed bike, as seems to be the consensus in this thread.

I said *at least*.

Actual tire pressure may vary with what tire width you choose.

And Peter you're just gonna keep on riding up to Humboldt, right? Just a few more miles!
