First Tubulars!

A teammate hooked me up with some tubulars this weekend. After pinch flatting on Saturday, I'm really looking forward to getting these new-to-me wheels up and running. It was time anyway... Picking up a pair of Challenge Limus's today or tomorrow, going full mud with these! After lots of Googling and YouTubing, I've decided to go with glue and tape.

Figured I'd share my experiences with the mystic arts of tubulars as I go through them. I know this is nothing new or exciting to many of you, but I'm super thrilled to finally 'join the club'

First question... how much of the old glue residue should I clean off? I took some of the larger chunks off already, but not really looking forward to what could be a couple hours of cleaning.
