1) trail -Yarra trails
2) ride time - roughly 2 hours.
3) miles -20
4) overcast, roughly 15-20 C
5) trail conditions - thick, slushy mud
6) summary - Well i got a new 07 Diamondback zetec sport yesterday and today would be my first ride on it. The ride started off with a 2 mile gravel main trail and the we got stuck into the tight, twisty, technical single track. With the trail covered in 2 inch deep mud i knew todays ride would be interesting. The red Michelin mud tyres were very impressive with great traction and the Rockshox reba sl worked superbly combined with Shimano deore components. Back onto the main gravel trail and then i dived into another singletrack. This one looped and went about 5 miles per lap(i rode it twice). Didnt end up falling today but really enjoyed the ride,and LOVED the new bike!
