Me and Arran went out the mtb's for a local spin down to Durham so I could do some banking as its pay day! I took the Krampgrease with the 29"x 3+" on the rear and a 26"x 5+" up front. Its been a while since I have ridden a Salsa with the 5" tyre on the front, so much cushion and grip but draggy on the climbs though! Good laugh riding through Durham market place to get to the bank with hundreds of visitors / shoppers stopping in their tracks and looking at the bike. Arran took his Scott carbon scale, he loves riding this bike its just hard work to get him to go out on it sometimes.
As for the ride well it was more of a leisure ride than flat out ride but Arran did drop me on every hill but he could not keep up with me on the down hills. As for the weather same as normal, sunshine one minute and overcast the next with a stiff breeze. Not that hot in the shade but still sweating on the climbs. Below are a few pics from the ride, enjoy and hopefully more soon -
