sorry Wayne, yes the roads are ok, and the trails are not to bad. but if we look at the number of flat rubber last year, but having said that every one who had rubber problems really had poor tiers to start with. myself included, we did 2 BFG 33" 265s one reparable ( side wall ) and one i left at the tip up there.

then there was the RR 300 tdi, and by his own admission as he was debating on if he should get a new set or not. there were 2 discos that came back on borrowed rubber.

as i said its not a bad place but if you have poor rubber its the place that will show it up
