A good trials tire is the bomb in Hancock. Mitas or Dunlop are better for the road sections. I rode my brother's TE450 at the '07 Kamuggamugga ride, with a trials tire. It flattened the hills with the front end floating a few inches off the trail, you had to be real carefull. The extra weight made it a good higher speed rock bike too. At the QR a few months later I had my '07 EC250 and it was pinned on some of the smoother hills. A 300 would have been perfect.
Bill have fun and I'll look for you if I head up on a road ride. Missed you at the Black Fly, I just went for Sat where my kid rode PeeWee.
