Isnt the issue not twin-v-grass but rather retratable-v-grass?

As most twins are retracts the appearance is that twins avoid grass, I am unwilling to risk my retractable single on soggy muddy bumpy grass.As much for the wear and tear on the u/c as anything, I shudder to think of the cost of an overhaul on the gear.So for me its summer time only and then only after I,ve checked by phone on the state of play, something i would never have done with fixed gear.

I dont think my caution is either ignorant or snobbish.
