• You think that's bad? Try again in Feb. I went through a brand new pair of sintered pads, and at one point my chain came off and I got off to put it back on and the whole chain ring was clogged with mud and had to pull the claims of mud off, and @platypus had to get off and clear all the mud out of his fork.

  • I had three mud-pushing-chain off events on my attempt to Cambridge on Saturday.
    And multiple De-muddings.
    Not saying its as bad as it gets, but it was distinctly unpleasant.
    Especially along farmer's fields.

  • Yeah I’m sure February is going to be a lot worse but I had to stop multiple times to take mud out as there’s very little clearance between the rear tyre, FD & FD band so mud was just piling up on top of the battery. Had to clear the fork crown a couple of times also. One ride in and I’m wondering if a 650B option might be a good idea once we hit the really bad weather
