Hmm, I would love to get out there on some fire roads upstate. Cant tell what kind of rubber you are using though. I have the grand bois hetres which do a great job on the pothole riddled roads here in Brooklyn but you think they would be ok for soft dirt/gravel paths. I only ask because they really have no "tread" to speak of to grab into the softer stuff. Thanks for any advice you can offer.
