Going to be riding the trail in September. Will be riding tubeless. Will we have problems with thorns?

It's probably too early to tell what it will be like in Sept, but 2 of us do it out and back every fall and the last 3-4 years the goatheads haven't been too bad. Before that there were years when it was a death trap but trail maintenance has been much better.

I've only had one flat report and it's up for debate if it's from the trail or moving off the trail in towns or a park. If you're tubeless you'll be fine but always have a tube for backup. If you do pick one up, I have had luck just leaving it in. It'll break off and the thorn part will act like a plug, your sealant will do the rest. September is a great time to ride the trail, enjoy the adventure!
