Same story for me. The TET rides you've done were for the experienced rider and doing them solo means you've reached the point where you're comfortable in any situation. Good for you and well done.
I think there I had some worn Motoz Enduro s/t. I also used Metzeler mc360 mid-hard and mid-soft. Next I want to try Motoz Tractionator Desert, but I can't find one at the moment. Hopefully this year I'll ride more of the TET, want to do the north, Lake District
@@antonio_89 motoz desert will fail you in the lakes due to it being terrible in anything vaguely muddy or wet, i know there is lot of rock up there but still , if it gets slippery you will need to be on your guard with that tyre - it wants dry terrain i run metz 360 mid hard, i think i will try mid soft next just to see the wear and how much softer they are in rock and mud, the mid hard are a great tyre but man are they hard and there is no compliance in rock or m,ud, it just diverts - very predictable tyre with long life but have to be careful eh
@@ogasi1798 😃😃😃 I had the metz360 mid hard, did about 2k miles on the rear, until it was completely gone. Now I have the mid soft, at touch I don't think it feels much softer. Both served me well on all sorts of terrain
subbed , you have done well to document the TET in this series of vids, this will be a resource for many out there - well done
Before I went on a few of my trips I tried finding videos as well, to see what's the area like, if I can manage on my own
Best way to do it. Solo. Nice.
I very often just jump on the bike and go, so difficult to find someone else on short notice

I've ridden that same route on my 690. What tires are you using? I'm trying to decide what to fit on mine now for a mix of TET and road riding.

You can see his video called tires on there

@@antonio_89 yes it's a good tyre, reliable but also funny to adjust to
I'm surprised the soft doesn't feel different
My local routes , so much better riding around South wales which isn't legal although farmers are easy going when you keep the gates closed
play nice with farmers and they mostly play nice back 🙂
Got any links how to find this ?
