walkerr Posted March 14, 2014 Share If I'm not on my hardtail for these rides, I drop the pressure on my normal 23's to about 6 Bar for a more comfy ride. Works well for me!!! I run my 23s at about 6.5 (rear) all the time ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underachiever Posted March 14, 2014 Share Registered and payed for the 200km next!should have atleast 3 friends joining me.really looking forward to it!Out of curiousity how many guys ride the shorter distances with knobblys? Or is that plain stupid? Not many guys ride an Audax on a MTB, I think I am the only one that did this over the past few years. The result is that it tough, either to stay with the group on their road bikes, or you are basically all alone. If you have a few buddies who can join, all the better. I found the MTB to be more comfortable over the distance, but the heavier bike makes it difficult to ride with the road bikes, the little accelarations the bunch has, are amplified if you are on the MTB.

walkerr Posted March 14, 2014 Share the little accelarations the bunch has .... What's all this talk of "accelerations" .... stop scaring me, I thought we were just out for a nice leisurely 600. My legs don't do accelerations, little or large .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walkerr Posted March 20, 2014 Share My map of the 600 https://mapsengine.g...YM.k2mDDPCPCoWU Your Leg 2 looks a little different to the GPX on the Audax SA website and the route sheet. According to those Leg 2 is more of a figure 8 shape than the out and return same way of Leg 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
