I think your spree would win just because it would actually have some traction with the knobbies

Re: NOW THIS LOOKS LIKE FUN
i put knobbies on my spree. It was a needed real bad... I live on a dirt road it gets scary with standard tires. Now it steers and stops like a champ. And the knobbies were the same price as standard tires $17 canadian at the local shop

Just noticed the basket. Do you think he packs it with mud to help the front end grip?

Re: NOW THIS LOOKS LIKE FUN
I have basically donated my old 1989 SB50 elite to the shop i work at as a shop rat bike, we do stuff like this time to time and sadly its not as fun as it looks.
You get like 3 feet then sink and fall over, if you manage to keep upright you get maybe 5 feet before the bike sinks 4 inches and bottoms itself out. Its kinda like riding on ice, it sounds like a lot of fun, but after a few minutes you just get frustrated you cant manage to go anywhere.

Re: NOW THIS LOOKS LIKE FUN
something that is fun to do is to get a bunch of your friends s*** faced, and talk them all into piling onto a junker and seeing how far they can get...
Now, i dont drink, so drunk people listen to me for some reason. what a bad idea
Riding Dubs is fun, but not really that funny...
3 people was kinda interesting, everybody had a place so they where able to ride around without any major problems.
4 people was where it got really interesting, there was no more seat space and no place for anybody to stand, so we had to start to get creative...
The fact that the bike was still completely rideable with 4 people blew our minds. we took turns doing this for a while and called that good.
until the track suit party....
things got a little stupid at the party and somehow the bike ended up with 6 people on it (only 5 in the pictures, i stopped to clean my lens and totally missed the 6th person)
as stupid and as crazy as this may sound, the bike seems to run just as good with 4 people on it as it does with only one person on it. Handling is another story all together....

Tires held up fine. The rear tire is crazy dry rotted to *, but even with all the weight it did its work just fine.
