Tour de Manc
Ive ridden this three times before and swore I wasnt going to do it again due to the horrendous state of the roads in some bits of Manchester, but here I am again signed up for the Mad Manc (200km 3400m asc) but I may end up dropping to the Full Manc if Im struggling (175km 3000m asc).
Its all in aid of charity so well worth entering if you are up for it.
Previous riders - any thoughts on tyre choice for the ride?
Im torn between Conti Grand Prix 5000TL (25) as my usual sportive tyres or Schwalbe Durano (28c) which are my tougher but slower training tyres.
