Today's Ride

Pleasant little ride yesterday evening. Everything going green. Started down there as usual. Stripped off the guards and put on summer tyres.

Re:

What size and kind of tires are those, THM-Maybe Small Block 8's? They look pretty smooth-wouldn't work that well around here, too dusty and slippery :) -we use fairly large knobbys-my front is a 2.4 Schwalbe Nobby Nic and my back one is a Schwalbe 2.25 Racing Ralph-both set up Tubeless. Today-Thursday-Warmer, in the low 70's F.-Rode up 1000' or so to the South-towards Mt. Tam into the Water District and it's lakes...

Good spot, SB8s in 29x2.2. First ride was OK with a little slippage but fine on dry hard pack. Will see how they go on the loose stuff. Also have a pair of Rocket Rons to try.
 
Today was fun. Went looking for a little local colour:

Unfortunately I took a wrong turn and found some brown. Bigger than he looks.
