David, everybody, Just registered my wife and I for the 100km. We thought about the English century, but we have to arrange babysitting and bring the kids down to Redlands. A hundred miler might take too much time. Probably my mom (KC) and dad will participate in the half-metric event.
I've never been on the course, but it seems the trails around there are a bit smoother than our fire roads, which are rutted, rocky things that most people tackle with 29ers, Jeeps, and lifted trucks. Would a 41 mm Knard / 40 mm Nano combo on my Soma Double Cross be fine? Not overkill, I hope. My wife has to decide between her Glorius, Romulus, or 29er. She has Hetres on the Glorius, and if she takes it I thought we might want to put in tire liners. I don't get a ton of thorns here in the San Gabriels, but I hear goat heads are more common around Redlands. Any suggestions would be appreciated. We like to ride fast and light when possible, but I'm not looking to get any "under-biking awards" :) Dave in Wrightwood On Saturday, November 7, 2015 at 9:08:22 PM UTC-8, cyclot...@gmail.com wrote: > > > http://redlands-strada-rossa.blogspot.com/2015/11/were-putting-stake-in-it-march-19-2016.html > > A very Rivendell-friendly event!
