Nice one, if you could bring it next ride that would be great.

Swampy on the back should be ok. I'll let you know how the spike goes.
- The secret to mountain biking is pretty simple. The slower you go the more likely it is you’ll crash.
- No one gets hurt in the air
- There is no such thing as bad weather, just inappropriate clothing.

When even I have used a Swampy I have found it spot on :laugh:until you touch a root and then you are on your ass :pinch:! Root and Swampy's do not get on imo !

Yep, a good ride. We seemed to have the perfect window of missing the rain. 100% of us falling means we really pushed the envelope, or just that we are crap :blush:

As all the faster riders seemed to be running wetscream spikes I have found a cheap one for the front and going to run a swampy on the back for the rest of winter. Hopefully that should mean some more grip :blink:
