Miles is at the sticking point.
With a heading like Finding Traction you might think this story is going to focus on the best tyres to fit. Well, you almost couldn’t be more wrong. If you’ve read my stories regularly before, or attended a training course with me, you’ll know I firmly believe tyres are not the holy grail of finding traction off road.How many times have you seen a rider with a half worn out tyre get up snotty, technical hill climbs while riders with brand-new, aggressive knobbies get stuck halfway or crash trying? If some people spent more time focusing on their riding skills and less worrying about tyre pressures, I’m sure they’d be much better riders.
