Hi all,
We are just back from our Munich to Venice cycle path ride and I wanted to say cheers for the advice on the tires.
We went with 35mm marathon supremes for me on my all-road Firefly that was weighed down to 65 pounds with all the gear and 32's for Mrs Morbihan who was riding a Van Nicholas Yukon (they "just" fit)
Its a fantastic path, taking you through incredibly beautiful scenery and I highly recommend it but there was way more gravel/off road than we expected.
I rapidly began to regret packing only one spare tube each as we bumped over sharp edged gravel and rock, but this turned out to be unfounded as we had zero punctures
I was frankly gobsmacked and big ups for the tires. They were super comfortable on the paved sections and while obviously not ideal for track, they got us round with no dramas.
Somebody asked about a report on the trail. Firefly have asked me to knock up a blog about the trip, so once done and online I'll stick a link up on the forum. happy to answer any individual q's on the trip too.
cheers.
