Just got me a Marin 27.5+. Looking for daily use tyres to use instead of the full on MTB tread. Mostly road, but with the ability for some rough stuff.
WTB horizons, panaracer gravel kings seem to be the most common tyres I'm reading about.
What are the recommendations?If anyone has anything worthwhile to sell in good condition, even better.

I'd like to change my banger commuter, in to a special, off road, capable machine with a front fork that has rack mounts.
Currently on 700c. Thinking of going 27.5 wheels with some monster semi slicks with a new 700c fork.
Does anyone have recommendations for fork, tyres or wheelset. If you have any for sale, even better.

Pahaha!
I seen an interview during the week with a Scottish fisherman that had changed their stance from out to in because their wasn't enough clarity for them.
I can see that being a continuing theme whilst the chumps in Westminster try their best to negotiate trade deals for the next however long.......

Looking for someone keen to do a swap. This is a 56cm frame, I'm 6ft exact.
I have done, according to Garmin, only 220 miles on this, in 3 rides in one year. As you can see, I'm not using it at all.
I'm after something more suitable for everyday use that can be potentially loaded up with panniers, possible trekking, long casual rides and go anywhere but mountains. Thinking along the lines of Genesis Longitude, Marin Pine Mountain, Surly Ogre.
Here is spec. Nothing has changed. One slight paint chip in left fork but nae biggie.
I had visions of entering races, duathlons etc, but never materialised.
In Edinburgh.

Hello fellow runners,
It's been a while since I posted, but I'm interested to see if anyone is in the same boat.
I've been running and doing intervals for some time now, got my VO2 max up to my PB of 55 and a PB half marathon of 1:29:50.Then the prescription of effexor (venlafaxine) came along.
I'm not sure if it's related, or if it's a drop in fitness, but my intervals have dropped way off, can't sustain them anymore, my running pace has dropped way down, I'm absolutely shattered after a run, I really need to focus on deep breathing now when I'm running so I don't start wheezing.
Does anyone else have experience of this? I'm really wondering if it is just a drop in fitness, or if it's the medication. My weight has stayed roughly the same.
