Doesn't take many miles in the wet for the beautiful bikes to get absolutely minging.

Rode Hawes trail system today in Mesa Arizona. This was my first challenging riding, and first trip back at Hawes since crashing so hard here it required surgery.
Also, this was my first ride with the Assegai DH MaxxGrip tires. OMG what an amazing improvement over the Conti Kryptotal enduro soft I had been running. The Assegais finally gave me the traction and feel I was looking for since moving to the desert!

The scenery is beautiful there.
But in terms of tires, comparing apples to oranges. Maxxis MaxxGrip should be compared to Conti's Super Soft. But the main thing, of course, is that you like them yourself.

That's why I'm being specific about the exact Kryptotal I am disappointed in. For all I know a Kryptotal DH Super Soft would be more comparable.

We were considering camping and riding there next week, but it looks like there may be some clouds Friday. Think it’s worth going anyway?

I'd go Thursday because Wednesday and particularly Friday look horrendous!

Yes nothing worse than clouds , I could tell you some horrific stories about them.

Yeah, I’ve heard about those cloud things. I even found an instagram post where they appear to have really impacted the day. Safe travels.

The rock was too slippery. The gap was wider than I thought. The bridge was broken. The log was rotten and I had to hiked-a-bike through the boulder fields.
…and while pushing through one of the four boulder fields, three female hikers quietly snuck up behind me …I swung around quickly, nearly missing the closest hiker …I apologize for my language as they passed. I couldn’t believe it. FFS

Anyways, the ride down was brutal. Washed out trails . A few wrong turns. My wrists were killing me. I should’ve stayed in bed.
Now the ringing in my ears is getting louder. Ding-Ding

Tremp, in the Pre-Pyrenees hills in Cataluyna, Spain. Tons of amazing trails!

 

[Stihldog]

Here’s what left of this feature. Built by some young enthusiasts.

Climbs to that stump…and then a 20’ drop down the other side. Undersized decking nails were everywhere. I cleaned those up.

Pre-dawn ride at Phoenix Mountain Preserve, Arizona.

 

[Mcharza]

First sunny day in December. Been with the flu for a couple of weeks and today was a great day to be outside.
- 4 C but I won't complain. Specialized T9 compound feels as hard as c.. I mean rock.

 

[ZR1]

Pretty jealous of anyone with dry trails, constantly getting wet from below around here.

With something like 320 sunny days a year in metro Phoenix, Arizona; trails are nearly always dry. Our downside is the 108° (42°C) days here in the Summer!

Out on the Surrey Hills today, Billy No Mates, just me ‘n’ my new Kado. It’s only 2 rides old but I am loving the bike and all the upgrades I’ve put on it from day 1

Only downside so far is that after 23miles and 3300ft of climbing I still had energy for more, but the 600wh battery didn’t.

Looking forward to the delivery of an 800wh battery next week!
