changing seasons, changing tires

It's fall in northern Minnesota. I've started to shuffle the bicycles around, and I'm almost ready to think about mounting studded tires for winter. This afternoon, I'm going out for a ride on my recumbent. It should be a beautiful day -- temperatures in the lower 60s.

the recumbent got a new set of tires about a month ago. They're quite a bit wider than the old ones. I've only been out a couple of times since changing them. So here's my theory: anything lost in terms of performance is minimal compared to the comfort gained through cushy wide tires. I will make a ride report later.
