Embarrassing to be asking this as I live just down the road in York, but I've just realised the last time I rode my bike was the day of the Royal Wedding...
Does anyone have any idea how deep the mud will be, please? Forecast looks drier but still unsettled. I'm feeling tempted by SS and mud tyres, or is this overkill? (Pauses to enjoy a monsoon which has just hit us, fantastic!)
Very deep and a lot of drag round rosedale way yesterday, take some seat covers for your car, 😆
I heard it was rubbish - wet and muddy. An event level rider did a 50k over the moor last weekend taking 4.5h.
Depends on the course I guess though.
See you there <gulps>
I rode Dalby yesterday, it was extremely wet but not at all muddy on the red, black and World Cup loops. I killed both sets of pads in 3hrs.
Thanks, folks. I feared as much. Dalby can eat pads very quickly. I think it might be a slow trundle on the single speed, but it'll be fun.
