"100 miles of bad roads." So, dual sport tires, not knobbies?

This is the weekend before I do Laconia so at most I could do one day. Is it worth driving up Friday night and leaving Saturday night?


Thanks,

REALLY?
I feel like I'm already over filling my riding list for domestic happiness. We'll see how it goes.
Yeah, it really was my favorite organized ride. If I could only pick one to do it would be this one, hands down. Its a blast.

I think so, Saturday was the better of the two days but be advised, you will be whooped by the end of the day. There where quite a few guys that rode saturday only and went home sunday morning. Sunday is a great day of riding but after saturday I think a lot of guys where just beat.

I sure would not want to ride it on 50/50 tires if that is what you are asking.

Oh, okay. The "roads" part threw me off. I'll just go on knobbies. Thanks for the advice, and it looks like just doing Saturday is a good idea for me.

You have to understand the majority of the Dabbers are trials riders so anything with 31 1/2" of width between the trees would be considered a road to them. :poser:

This year we need to form up an Options Assault Team. :whoop:

I'm not happy we didn't get to do many. :fitz:

Someone else can lead the n00bs. :whip:
