January 2023. Texas, panhandle.

From the the sublime to the ridiculous!

Flash flood upcountry could have been interesting , this is where the mobile phone comes in handy when picking camping.

Out of season and many places are closed ,camping it is.

Having to replace tyres is a good thing, means I've covered great distances.

Old vs new Schwalbe Marathon Plus MTB.

I don't keep an accurate record of distance but estimate they last for ±15,000kms under a fully loaded rig.

The higher wear on one side is mainly due to road camber but I also know I don't balance in a perfectly vertical manner, irrespective of load. One leg heavier than the other perhaps 😉

Of you were from Yorkshire you would turn them round and wear the other side!!

Tyre manufacturers tend to put arrows for direction. They would go out of business if everyone reversed tyres😄when they showed uneven wear.

A couple from my return to the Harz Mountain's overnighter, this time with a friend who'd never toured off-road before.

A cyclepath this morning.

Groesbeek, Netherlands heading towards Germany.

A long curving downhill run on a perfect surface away from motor vehicles. I had forgotten how that feels.

A new road surface and wider compared to the last 2 .

Still not good enough to stop you coming off your bike?

I’m guessing you crossed the “border” here..?

Came out of Groesbeek yesterday. Heading out from Kleve in Germany to Den Bosch. We might have crossed paths!
