Not a hijack, but a helpful though shameless plug: I have a set of these in 32 mm, the silver color, with about 40 miles on them, available for $60/pair to List members, if anyone wants to try them.
I've tried those on my Woodrup (on-topic frame, off-topic parts) as a winter tire, but I'm building a set of wider clincher wheels for touring.
These are pretty good tires, but for a tour I'll be better off with clinchers.
