Well, I thinkk it is time for the supercorsa tyres to come off.

I have rode in torrential rain in them, and this morning was 4 degrees and warnings of ice on my dash. So i think it is time for the angel st to go on.

I have to admit, they have been really good in the rain. torrential rain, flooding, etc and still gripped really well, even at speed. I am overtaking adventure bikes in terrible weather on them, but maybe they are just pussies lol.

So I will try and get the bike to a local mechanic to switch them over. I did try to take the wheels off myself but the rear is **** mega tight and I couldnt budge it.


Also, on 3100 miles now, 2.5months, and still not washed it. hahahaha.

funnily enough I emailed a mobile bike doctor this morning. And the guy at work said if he can collect it he'll take a look.

I was probably not quite as bad as D6 at cleaning my bike when it was a road bike.. just to much effort when I'd rather be riding it anyway.

Now the bike's pretty much only a track bike it gets cleaned before each trip... so no more than 300 miles which used to be a day's riding through Wales for me.

I'm wanting to test a few Triumphs next year...
