Thanks, I went to a great frame building course in Roubaix over Easter at La Fraise cycles. Highly recommended, there's a somewhat un-structured thread about it;

Spending a school break at the in-laws in Vaasa Finland. Finally got the frame/bike I built in Roubaix 90% done (still forgot to bring a PM/FM adapter...)
Schwalbe Hurricane is a very versatile tire I'd say. Hard to compare it to the Conti hardpacks that I have on the Peregrine, as they are 50mm run tubeless on 18 mm rims and heavier wheels and these are 57mm so far run with tubes on 25mm internal rims on lighter wheels. So far the Schwalbe combination feels better. I was hoping to get away with using the Hurricanes when I come here for Christmas (I'll probably bring a studed tire for the front)
Anedotical BB7s still working really good (I can't even think of all the braking I'll be able to do with two of them!)
