    What you did to your Tenere today??!!

    Replaced my tires with K60 Scouts with my no-mar tire changer. As I have a wimpy air compressor, this saved my life -> http://www.bestrestproducts.com/c-154-beadsetr.aspx to get the bead to set. First time with the wheels off, will be far faster next time. :)
