General Discussion / Need week long parking, Hudson WI

Looking for a place to leave our SUV during the last week in August 2013, while we tour in Wisconsin. City streets have a 24-hour limit.

Thanks!

Gear Talk / Re: Best touring tires

I love Paselas by Panaracer at about 55 psi. I've used the 35's for about 6 years now, and now trying out the 37's. For some reason the 37's are harder to get (Harris Cyclery carries them) and not discounted as often. They may be a little more supple than 35's, not much though, but I will say the lost 2mm of fender clearance is noticeable in more little pebbles dragging in my fenders.

Thinking of trying the BG Rock & Roads for an unpaved tour; I would have to remove fenders but that is feasible in CO/WY.

Gear Talk / Re: Salsa Vaya rack advice

I imagine you got your racks by now, but you'll probably need the Salsa front racks to fit with the disc brakes. Me and 2 of my buddies have them on Fargo and Vaya and they're really nice.
