Trail Riding?
 
Our local bike club is now doing a bit of night trail riding on MBs. As I do not own one ,yet!, I was wondering if anyone here does this type of riding on their hybrid? Tyre choice? I do have a pair of Muddle Wrestlers.
Thanks!

Define "trail riding!"

There are dirt walking trails, that allow cycing, in a local county park.

Packed dirt no problem. Loose dirt and rocky not so good. Ride it in the daytime and see what you think. Night riding isn't any different as long as you have proper lighting.

And make sure to keep your mouth closed.

Don't ask.

Night trail riding sounds like a blast. The other posters have given you good suggestions. If it's pretty a packed dirt path, then I think 32-35-38 tire sizes would be fine. Probably the best suggestion is to ride it in the daytime and see how your bike handles it.
