Anyone by chance want a newish pair of folding 700x32 pasela TGs for a newish
pair of 700x28s? My 32s are just a bit too tight. I'd be interested in almost
any 28 or even as low as 25s with ruughy toughies being my favorite.

trail, and a gem. Drive out to Banks (Hwy26-Hwy6, Banks is first exit on
Hwy 6, I think). Drive to the north end of Banks, trailhead is on your
