I think to compare is unfair, but to try all with an open mind is the real spice in life

I think it’s an age thing because although all ages can adv ride ,and many do well into their 60’s , single track riding becomes harder to do as you get older. Adv rides can be easier to tailor to suit an older rider whereas a trail ride to make it easier would end up on fire roads and if your doing that you might as well be heading for a destination – adventure riding.

I have done a lot of both over the last few years and I would say single track riding is like a top shelf shot that goes straight to the head whereas adv riding is a quality beer that creeps up on you.
The result is the same , satisfaction and a silly grin at the end of the day

Wow , nice looking bike !!

I have submitted my vote too
You were on my list mate
Only at the bottom
If its a wet forecast and going to be muddy for a while i go on the rear an S12 ( it doesn’t last long though ) but the Dunlop Geomax MX51 is my favourite all rounder , it finds good traction in all conditions and grips to the end. Ev’s wet greasy rocky creeks last weekend were a good test for my 23 hour old Dunlop and with a steady throttle I found traction comfortably
Michelin M12 front works well for me in all conditions ( I didn’t get on too well with the S12 front in really wet loam )
