They provide a great ride, but might not be the best tire for riding in
Philadelphia - I've abandoned them for urban riding as I tired of repairing
flat tires d/t everyday urban detritus.  Now riding Schwalbe Marathon
Supremes700 x 32c - no more flats (knock, knock) and the ride is quite
comfortable.

I've put thousands of miles on my Grand Bois with only one or two flats.  I
think part of the secret is to avoid living somewhere that has Goathead
thorns (whatever they are).
