[QUOTE="Jeff Gilbert, post: 121354, member: 20280"] [b]Not to sound like a whimp but . . .[/b] this ain't no mud like I've ever ridden in before. As I walked across the ground my boots pulled about a half inch layer of some substance that resembled black peanut butter. My boots pulled this tacky stuff up and left a dry impression where the mud used to be on the ground, this is where I unloaded my bike. As I headed down the trail, the ground turned to a silt pool that was hard yet slick as owl grease slightly under the surface. I've ridden in mud before but not like this. The mud I'm used to is the kind that has water standing or wet enough that I can rut through by staying on the gas, this stuff had no traction at all. My brakes, chain & sprockets clogged with mud. In fact, the mud was so slick, yet sticky, that the mud build up on my front tire was rubbing the pipe. The faster I tried to go the more my front wheel tried to lock up causing the back end to want to pass. It was no fun at all! I enjoy riding in semi wet conditions but this was uncontrollable.
