different riding style

[tintin40]

What are different riding styles when riding in mud/wet conditions too riding in the dry summer conditions ?

In mud....sit and spin.

In mud....sit and spin.

...and slip and slide.

go carefully downhill and round corners!

Fall on arse!

Give it less beans round the corners to avoid the front wheel washing out

In summer - go into a corner slow, come out fast.

In winter - go into a corner slow, come out upright.

Do your braking and steering on the bits that offer best grip, try and avoid making control inputs when it gets really slimy.

Sounds like all good advice

Either - ride a bike that's capable of going straight
Or - crash into trees


PS
Is that one of your many wives or one of your many girlfriends?

If it get's really muddy |(like today) I change to narrow mud tyres (1.8's or so) with widely spaced nobs. They cut through the gooey mash and find traction on the solid stuff underneath. I pay the price in the loose sandy bits though.

Enjoy!
