I still think it's me, not the tyres .. time will tell.
It's amazing how you can talk yourself into somthing feeling not quite right when riding. I've stopped and checked my tyres, wheels etc after it has felt "a bit weird", especially if I haven't checked pressures and it's been sitting for a while. I convince myself something is wrong. once I've stopped and checked everything and convinced myself everything is ok and normal, the bike feels great. I'm sure we've all done it, but it always pays to check.
If I'm out for a fang I like to run my pressures at 34-36 for the pilot road2. If I'm 2up or touring, I run them at 40-42. For the track I've been down as low as 28.
I don't want a pickle . . .
