thundstorms during mountain cross racing would get me hard. I'm keen.

It will still be on depending on how hard it rains.

 

[sprocket]

yeah if it looks like it gonna be wet i'm going to take my wet weather tyres.... hope all the guys camping out there don't get to much rain

 

[Hardtail89]

Yeah i'm taking my cheese cutters, cheese being mud, so it should be fun. It hasn't rained out there during a race before, so it should be lots of fun....if you don't crash in the jungle section, lol

Please oh please don't be muddy! Worn out LarsenTT/Lopes BlingBling combo doesn't go well in the wet

If i'm anything close to the state i'm in now, i'll be passed out in a creek... so weather doesn't really matter

 

[i like dirt]

It wasn't muddy today during practice. My front minion just happened to be a 4-inch wide mud slick when I got to the bottom after 10 minutes attempting to ride the track. clip pedals became uber mud flats so I couldn't even clip in. Then after practice went to a few bike shops and had no luck finding any mud tyres so am now cutting some old minions I had lying around.

PS If you enjoying living don't ride the rock garden.

Pity the track was dry becuase i was having fun in the wet, and i had a high roller on the front and a minion front (30% left) on the rear.
