"We really are a bunch of geeks. 1 week of snow, and everybody is out building fat tyred beasts. Nice work."
Just come back from a ride nr. Bristol and my 2.5" Hookworms (see John's bike above) are now lying in the back garden. Not only do they double the weight of the bike, but they are worse than useless on anything icy. To add insult to injury I tried to take them off with cold hands when I got back and nearly ended up crying cos it took so long.
Can't understand why I have so many pairs of tyres but they're never the right ones....
