It's going to be 0 since I don't have a Garmin.

Yep, it proves your point. I'm a slow rider and I don't care about avereage speed. I was slow on 23mm tyres too. I ride my bike because I like riding bikes. I don't care about Strava KOMs. I don't want to go on road group rides either. I won't have more fun on my bike because my average speed goes up.

Again, I only chimed in because it was ridiculous to use rolling resistance data without pressures, your "point" doesn't change that.

Personally I went with Voyagers because I wanted a wider tyre for the road that wasn't an overbuilt commuter tyre that feels super sluggish, and I accomplished that. That's it, really.

They were the same price when I bought them about 4 months ago. Looks like Planet X is the cheapest place to get them.
