How long do your rear tyres last
This is my rear tyre, Its pretty shagged, LOL, I know. At that stage it had done 1800 km. Its now just over 2000 km. mainly around the Northern Beaches. I've just received my replacement tyre and it will be fitted in the next few days. This tyre had sensational grip when it was fresh. Front tyre was mounted new at the same time but still has plenty of meat left on it.

Withdrawn: 29er wheel set
Note that this is "Withdrawn" so is here for archive purposes only.
I'm selling the original wheelset from my Bianchi Jab 29.1
Price :- Make me a sensible offer
The rear rim is buckled, I've taken it to a couple of different shops and no-one seems to be able to get it completely true. You may have better luck with your local LBS.
The general condition of the wheels is good, there are a few scratches to be expected with second hand wheels but nothing major.
I'll include the discs and QR axles. The rotors are 180mm front and 160mm rear Magura Storm.
The freehub is in good working order.
MTB gloves
Can anyone recommend good quality MTB gloves? I find the stitching on most brands comes apart within 6-9 months of constant use (but maybe that's par for the course?)

Old Man's Valley update for 02 Jun
Well, it was outstanding yesterday.
Today it's copping a belting by heavy rain. Will need several days to a week of sunshine to dry out. Let's hope this downpour doesn't hang around too long.

Manly Dam update for 02 Jun
At the risk of stating the bleedin' obvious... it's belting down. Likely to need a week of sunshine and wind to dry out after this.
Time to go and do the vacuuming
