One ride so far and it was NOT a dry one. Pictures don’t do justice to the full coverage of dirt. It was everywhere. But that’s what it’s for! I bought it at 3:00 pm and had to wait until 9:00 to put pedals to it and within 5 minutes I was totally impressed with the traction going up a steep, wet, muddy river bed.

I can’t wait to get on it again, it’s lurking in my office just taunting me; I’m hoping to get out at lunch on some trails I can ride to right from here.
