Too Narrow
I had high hopes for the Toro CX. The tire has a good tread design and has good grip on dry terrain but in muddy and wet conditions it's just okay.
It would be a better tire if it was a little wider. I think it's not truly 33c when I compare it to the Specialized 33c tire it replaced for the cross season.
While it does the job, I think there are better choices for the conditions that the PNW has thrown at racers this cross season. When it comes time to replace the Toros, I'll be looking for a tire with a bit more volume.

Learning curve
I'm new to cx this year. I figured gravel tires would work fine. NOPE. These tires were a game changer for me. I went from slipping in turns and off camber & spinning out when the pitch kicked in to having half of the those issues. Given my rider errors are plenty that's a huge gain from just tires. Great in Forest Park, Tabor Trails, and Powell Butte too. Predictably, a bit slower on tarmac. Still took them on a club road ride and mostly kept up. Might be slightly tired as they get eaten up on road but that also not their intended use. If you're new to CX i recommend them
