Front tyre

Recommend me one. The trial type maxxis front is just hopeless on the mud as it just doesn't clear the tread. Rear is fine as it spins it off eventually

Harmonics
(Preview)
Never really understood why harmonics (touching a string on a fret key) on a guitar rather then pressing a string to the fret board generate a note that sounds better to my idea? Harmonics any ideas? Hoping someone really knows as it is a great question in my, not often humble, humble opinion Harmonic...

Happened to be passing Newcastle-Under-Lyme over the weekend and popped in to look at a new bike. The place is amazing with hundreds of old classics for sale, from mopeds to some proper classic enduro, mx and road bikes. Well worth a visit if passing as it's only 15mins off the M6.

The Lane Of Pain Levelled
(Preview)
For those of you without access to the DTRF forum it seems the notorious Lane of Pain that leads up to the radio mast at Halwell (and is avoided at all costs) has been levelled. This sort of intervention is usually unwelcome, but in this case I say "hallefarkinlujah". Original post was by deci.

A heads up as the police are doing quite a few stop checks and checkpoints this year. Living in a village with a pub is handy as I can walk to the pub and back.
