I'm a commuter and each day do 15 miles round trip on my Trek Valencia. A mate and I decided to do the Downs link this week, and I swapped my road tyres for some cross tyres.

Bugger me cycling through the sticky stuff on that route is much harder than the road ride on my commute, especially with packed panniers. 42 miles in six hours, and I was completely broken.

Tell you what though, it was amazing fun. I'm thinking of leaving the cross tyres on the Trek and doing more.

I expect your regular commute will seem easier the next time you do it.

Sounds good, and you should be pleased with yourself, 6 hours off road in sticky mud is hard work.
