Singletrack Samurai: got it so the road course is a lil dirty
FACTORe: yes - of the 7 miles loop almost 2 of ti is dirty
FACTORe: I got some 24mm's kevlar belt for this race and webster - the 22s would not be good
FACTORe: that is as big a tire I can run with my frame clearance
Singletrack Samurai: cool.. should be a good time, I used to ride my road bike on dirt roads all th time I love hitting a dirty corner at 17Plus, can you say DRIFT
FACTORe: the dirt road looked pretty packed
FACTORe: I dont think they would have us ride 6 inch deep sugar sand
Singletrack Samurai: nah the roads I used to go on where packed as well, it was FUN, i would tell people and they thought I was crazy for riding my road bike on dirt roads
Singletrack Samurai: you can go just as fast as you want too, there is a little resistance there and you got to expect the drift in the corners if your really haulin
FACTORe: sounds like a blast - I am racing with cat 3s for the first time so we will be haulin (they will be anyway and I plan on trying to keep up)
Singletrack Samurai: DO IT
FACTORe: so - after talking it over with a few folks - actually going to run the tubulars instead and run them down in pressure a bit - cant do that with clinchers because of pinch flats
