WABA 50 States Ride – keep the Gatorskins on?

[Dirt]

Keep the gatorskins on. There’s a lot of glass and stuff out there. The heavier wheels build character. I won’t make it this year. Enjoy! I’ve got a thing Saturday night that will prevent me from waking up at a reasonable hour on Sunday.

HTFU, Dirt! It’s Saturday!

Dave – definitely Gatorskins. There’s some crap road on that route. It’s great fun, though – I’m sure you’ll see parts of DC you’d never have otherwise seen. I did it a few years ago and loved it. (And if you want to talk about doing it with a heavy bike – I did it with a full suspension MTB on 2.2 knobbies (was getting bike-specific miles in, in advance of the SM100).)

Cool. Even more reason why I won’t be riding it this year. I can’t let a good bike ride get in the way of my pre Oktoberfest warm-up.
