Ah, yes. The hedges round here are undergoing a second round of hacking.
I've finally got Marathons on both end of the knockabout bike which seem to be shrugging off the thorns well so far (goes to touch wood).

I've been putting the Durano + to their test just recently. So far, so good. The GP 4 season shod bike has been a different story though

I had two punctures last winter due to hedge cutting, I was not impressed. Changing a tube on the rear in sub zero conditions is not my idea of fun.

I haven't had a puncture since I got my new bike in 1869
Love the bike, but does it have a bell?

You would have to be a bit of a bell to get on it.

From tonights journey home - you'll probably guess I was in the car today but a decent number of cyclists commute along this road:
To be honest it doesn't look as bad in these dash cam pics as it did in real time, but you can clearly see how the hedge trimmings extend from the footpath right across the central white line. Last time this was done it was left like this until the weather and traffic cleared the detritus away.
It's been reported via fixmystreet but it will be interesting to see if anything gets done.

That is why in winter months I always ride on Marathon Plus. I like knowing when I go out that I will not be sitting onsome cold muddy roadside fiddling with a flabby inner tube and tyre and mucking about with some mini pump. It’s bad enough on a warm sunny day, when you would still much rather be cruising along. It’s intolerable in the cold and wet.
