Default OT - Fast on the straights versus fast in the curves

I was having fun on bicycles today, and was about to get passed on the straight by a competitor with a much more powerful engine; then we came to a curve, and.....



First time I ever stuck my car cameras on the bike, kind of fun!

Zipp 303s with Continental 4000 tires? You had more grip.

OK, the Zipps are an easy catch, but if you can recognize Conti 4000's by the tread pattern, you are spending WAY too much time thinking about tires....
