I like the way you set up the composition and dhow off the landscapes behind you it kind of tells the story that you have gone far. On i also want to take such photos. But when i get outside and set the camera up and give it 10sec timer i stand and wait... No shutter sound? and phone battery died because of the cold weather ._. But i will just wait for good weather... if you ever see some guys with a camera smiling and laughing at santa monica beach? Its yes theory go check their channel. I saw that beach in one od their video and thought. Thats the beach marty is crusing around on. Thanks Santa Monica is a popular area so I'm sure there are lots of videos taken there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post meepmeepmayer Posted March 8, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) IT'S OFFICIALLY SPRING! 10°C AND OVER! HOT HOT HOT! SUN OUT, CLEAR BLUE SKY! I emptied my battery (100% to beeping) and wasn't even cold at the end of the 3.5h ride! I'm starting to remember now, this is how it used to be in better times! -- Todays tour. This is the route/map. Starts in the middle, first the right part clockwise, then the left one counter-clockwise. GPS says 60km! This would not have worked in colder temps, crazy how a few degrees of outside temperature make such a big difference in battery range. Wheel says 67km. First part of the ride is getting to and circling that lake you can see on the map. Some mountain views, looking South from the North shore at 1 (see route picture). Note the ice on the water. A little stop somewhere around 2. Find the hidden wheel Close by, a neat little church with a tiny village on some mound thing. You can see the hills in the background, they're along the lake's south shore and give great views in all directions. View up there, near 3. Panorama. Looking back, a farm. Came from the right, continued to the left. This spot was just a little lookout excursion. Panos are great. Further along the way, horses (at 4). 2 ran away, one was "curious" (aka hoping I have some food for it - no luck though). Horses have nice views of the lake below. One more panoramic view. No more photos from now on, the best was over. But I got to test the ACM's new tire's mud qualities thoroughly.

meepmeepmayer Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 (edited) A little update on the Kenda studded (edit: it's not studded, there are no metal parts, just rubber) winter/offroad tire: It really works great on any soft (that usually means wet) surface. Soft-ish mud, grass, more mud, mud on inclines and in potholes, mud, melting ice, more mud. Might have had some unpleasant spin outs and slips with the standard tire. For Winter/Spring, when you encounter such spots, the studs are really neat. The tire's track almost looks like a tiny tank's one, very firm looking. (But the standard tire isn't that bad either, don't underestimate it.) I don't think the studded tire has any adverse effects on range compared to the standard one, despite being so loud.

Not sure how long it will hold or if the studs will degrade fast on pavement. I'd say it is a soft surface tire - no noise, great grip by digging in. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meepmeepmayer Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 5 minutes ago, kasenutty said: Are you going to ride it all summer or swap back? I'll try it some more because it's only 3 rides for now. And probably keep it as long as everything here is wet and muddy. Winter has only been over for a few days and it still shows, and I'm quite impressed with today's mud performance. Once the weather gets more reliably dry, I'll change back. Maybe in a month or two? Not much point in using it on dry ground, I think. And it is LOUD (which is cool because people hear you from afar, but it is still LOUD). @Rehab1 You had the same thing on your aCM, right? You know how well it works on a wet grass/soft earth combination. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the difference (between studs and knobs)? Looks the same to me, including the shape of the... extrusions (whatever they are called). Does "stud" mean spikes? It has none.

meepmeepmayer Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 Sorry, my bad then. It has no metal studs, just the knobby profile. Pretty sure it's the same one @Rehab1 used - where did you buy it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
