After taking Losartan for some time, couldn't get the BP down as much as we thought. Did a bunch of research, added first 12.5 mg of HCTZ, diuretic... then up to 25mg HCTZ. That combo really worked!...

If you feel compelled to remove the eyelets, you might want to check the numerous recent threads about washers. They probably didn't put the eyelets there just for decoration.

Flats are sometimes just bad luck. Going 24k without a flat is unheard of but not the experience of an average rider. I got flats on new tires on super clean roads and never got one in our alley...
