And to be quite honest I find the conditions change that frequently, and there's always places that need "mud" tyres, i.e. the Westworth end of Guissy Woods etc., _________________ "Money talks, but it don't sing and dance and it don't walk....."

So to answer your question.....although it's getting warmer there are still some boggy bits about!!! Stick with the "mud pluggers" for the mo I'd say!! _________________ Heaven kicked me out and Hell was too afraid I'd take over!!
