Default quick sf ride report

made a trip up towards Monte Cristo with a couple of friends, kind of a chilly ride but overall turned out pretty good. ended up being the 2nd one to make it up (the 1100 duci made it before me, just not enough power to keep up haha) but made it down the quickest. little 250sf is absurdly nimble on those winding roads

What tires are you running? They look like some sort of off road tire. Thanks, Brad

the tires are 'golden boy trail tires sr244'. pretty good on the street although you still get some flex/slip like you would with more aggressive offroad tires, these are probably about a 75/25 or 80/20 tire (onroad/offroad). last for forever, put 3500 miles on them since late march and still have about 1/3" tread depth left. work just fine on hard pack dirt/gravel, DONT do well in the soft stuff/mud/snow (pack up VERY QUICKLY).

thanks deej, yea was nice and clear this weekend but getting cold fast. next trip i hope to have my helmet cam on, just arrived in the mail today! will only have a few weeks to get motorcycle video's though until next summer, headed to afghanistan in january so the camera will get to film other stuff
