Picked up my bike from the shop today and took it for a quick 3km spin. Went with bontrager H5 tires in 700x38c. Good improvement in ride and wet grip. Love how easy this bike is to pedal and those brakes are awesome. Overall I think I keep the bike around and try as is for now. In the future if I feel the need I will look into a suspension seat post for some extra comfort.
I set myself a goal for the summer to complete the local Cambridge to Paris Rail trail and back again. Not much of a ride to some but for my fat broken self it shall be a challenge and one I really am looking forward to on this bike. Thanks all for the advice.
