First real ride on it

Then I went up what was supposed to be a typical provincial kept walking trail....while consrtuction crews were working on a water pipeline, turning the trail into a road; of mud, blasted rock, excavator tracks, etc.






Hoping to get a Brooks B17 this week.
Though I'm not a fan of Surlys, those bikes look good with those meaty tires. What wheels and tires (size too) are you using? What [PSI] are you running?
