I ride/race Aspens, including W2W last year. I’m 80kg and run them at the same pressures as above (2.4” tyre on 25mm internal rims). Zero issues in 6 months. They are great tyres, fast and good grip in the dry.

I'm cursed by the marketing scam, help 😭

Haha thanks! Yes did exactly that today. Came in with 40mins to spare I think.

Finally made it to bed, now to catch up on sleep.

Crazy headwind, sleep deprived, 10hrs in the saddle, no cramps.. win in my book, hopefully bake to normal by tomorrow morning!

Well done you biscuit!!

Shot thanks for the update. Was a bit worried when I saw Johan Div in the DNg pile but then realised there’s two of you in the event. 
lekker slaap!

Would you ever really admit you forgot to charge though?
‘Nah it’s jammed, i swear’😊

Not sure what you mean. I paid full retail for the tyres and they work well. Happy customer. All I meant to say with my post was that the Aspens are not a bad choice for the Epic. Nino either just had really bad luck or he has some custom version of the tyre that is less durable than the stock version, which obviously then was a bad choice.

What happened to Schurter & Forster today?

Forster looked to be struggling

could be more punctures of the tyres or the lungs

I think that they could focus more also on the ladies race instead of showing the highlights of the men's race. Highlights should be at the end and race discussions.

Absolutely agree. So silly to show HL while there is still live racing.
