I love the Michelin's. I have all sort of Maxxis, Michelin, Continental, Tioga, Bontrager, Kenda, WTB, and Intense tires. In fact, I have an enitre rack from the local motorcycle shop filled with tires. I take the tires off often in search of something new but I always end up back at the trusty, FAST and cut/grooved Michelins.
