Just been to the woods for a blast, washed the bike, and the On-Ones tires are WTB Moto Raptor Race 29 Inch. I find them very good for those technical turns taken at speed. Don't know their ice ability yet, but recon to early next year I guess.

But if you mean in the UK, I'm not a masochist. Get up early, walk (or taxi) from hotel at Heathrow to nearest station wherever that is. Pay extortionate amount of money to sit/stand on noisy uncormatable rolling stock. Wait. Wait a bit more. Listen to excuses. Wait. Eventually get on train. Stop and sit at signals. Continue. Get to Farnham later than expected. Carry laptops and whatnots up stairs and then down the other side to get to correct station side. Look for bus stop as no taxis evident. Next bus to Ewshot is 2 hours a week on Tuesday. Ask about taxis and, wahaay, see one. Hes booked but will return in half an hor to pick me up. Get to customer but first need to use facilities to clean up due to filthy state of train. Have a coffee, power on his system, begin installation. Stop after an hour to make way back as its already getting dark and the train probably has a broken headlight so will be cancelled.
And its probably cheaper and will be quicker by car. Thats why!
Set off, wait in traffic jam for 4 hours, arrive by lunch time.

The On-One 29er MTB has some very nice knobbly things but I'm not in the mood to go and look at the name.

Originally posted by darmstadtMe, but they're only rated for 210 kmh. The next lot will be for 240 kmh though. Will I need them to drive to the UK on Sunday (via Belguim and France?) Working in Farnham, staying in Woking.
