    Same tire just new, and well I should never ride a tire as long as I did. The difference is crazy. It’s actually taking some getting used to around turns, but the tech climbs and trails on a freshy take no getting used to.

    Honestly man in my experience they're all about the same, you can expect 3-4 years of use if it's installed full-time. I think the biggest variable is if you have a backup camera or not

    I’m kinda kicking around the notion. Haven’t ridden at Monte Sano before. But it’s around a 3hr drive…

    Heads up if it rains Saturday (as the forecast shows) Monte Sano may make them not do the demo Sunday. They’re sticklers about wet trails and it just doesn’t dry very well up there.

    Good to know.

    Same trail status local to me. Anything above 0.25” shuts us down for at least a couple days.

    Yeah idk if they’ll look at it differently since there is a demo scheduled but I’d hate for you to drive over and not be able to ride.

    Would've been perfect to hold it at Coldwater simply for weather. Plus less hikers than Oak Mtn or Monte Sano I imagine..

    Thanks for thinking of me but not really. It seems like the market has acted inversely of interest rates. Buyers market for sure. I made my cash in '20/'21 and stepped away

    My guess is cold water probably doesn’t get as many demo days simply based on population :notsure:

    My guess as well, plus it's not really set up for a ton of parking.
    I was told they're not having the enduro there this year simply because the person who maintains it told GoNuts they'd have to park in the city and ride to the trail head.

    Heading to the Sea Otter Classic this Saturday with the kids. Just going to spectate, look at the booths, let the kids ride around the "kids zone" and hopefully not spend too much money.
