you're psycho. have you been through 90 tires already? you should just pick a pair and roll 'em for a while till you learn how to corner and feel the sublteties of the tire. then you will be able to, or better able to determine which tire works best for you. with the leaves off the trees now, i would recommend some solid side knobs to bite through the leaves. a few weeks ago would have been sweet for a fast roller like the small block. the tires i have on my Trek are a pretty good all around tire but I forget what they are and don't want to go look. they are WTB somethings.
