I ended up trying to dodge every little thing which isn't always possible or sometimes dangerous.
thanks for the heads-up, but i don't think the harsh ride will bother me too much. i actually like to feel every grain of sand that i roll over. my fair weather commuter is my road bike and i keep the 23s on it inflated to 135psi. some would say that's way too hard for everyday urban street riding, but it's just the way i like to ride.
