What tyres better in the wet?
Anticipating bottlebutt being wet, what would you run front and rear out of 2.0 race kings and 2.2 x-kings?
Or would you run a combination of both? 2.2 X-king up front and 2.0 race king out back.
These are the only tyres I have to choose from.
Generally, is a fatter or skinnier tyre better in the wet?

Time for a new bike!! Suggestions on 29ers?
Morning gents
Yep, have made up my mind to get a new bike, doesn't help there is a 'GIANT' store with some shiny toys just up the road.
Was in yesterday trying to decide when some 29'ers caught my eye. I'm into mostly XC and technical riding, not so much downhill.
Be interested to hear any and all opinions on moving from standard size to 29'ers.

Ingar + Andersons + Oaks
The meeting times are 'ready to ride'. If you need time to prepare equipment then please arrive a few minutes earlier.
Glenbrook station carpark.
This will be my last hit out before the Bottlebutt the following weekend. I will be catching the 8:23am train from Glenbrook and arriving at Woodford at 8:53am. From there my plan is to head down to Bedford Creek, up Ingar, then down Andersons back to the top of the Oaks, stop for water and then down the the Oaks back to the car. It's 77km with about 1500m climbing and 1800m descending so on average it's down hill . I'm thinking this would be around 4 hours once heading off from Woodford.
There's 3 Hot Laps Challenges in this ride so lets see how we go
