    ah, I've had the smallblock on the rear since march, you'll be fine! I had a second turn up today to go on the front, although I think I'll be holding that for a week or so now!

    How're you finding those smallblock 8's? I've never used kenda tires before, mainly just panaracers.
    I just fitted summer tires last weekend too, i'd forgotten how much faster the trails are when they've properly dred out. I'm not changing back to the bigger tires just yet though; I have faith that summer is here, and the gloop that is my usual route is gone hehe

    I'm gonna be gutted if the weather turns crap for the weekend.

    Mrs. P is away at a hen do so I've had this weekend set aside to get down to Glentress for months now. Hope it stays decent. Cracking few days this week and today looks good, I just hope it hangs around for tomorrow at least!

    Fingers crossed!
    Why so serious?

    Forecast keeps changing. We had a little rain last night (all dry now) and the forecast for today and tomorrow has gone from "heavy rain" both days to cloudy tomorrow and some rain on Sunday.

    I don't care what the whether is like this weekend, rain or shine, I'm riding my bike at some point - not been able to for the last couple of weeks - sooooo annoying :( Expect it will be raining in good old bank holiday fashion. Currently sunny though :)

    I came off fires and razers, small blocks are well worth trying out, at least on the rear
