I thought it quite erudite!

I thought a crudite was a traditional French appetizers comprising sliced or whole raw vegetables which are dipped in a vinaigrette or another dipping sauce?

But then I don't have a degree in anything

Kev,

Cheers for getting out in the cold and testing tyres, I know Andy was over but managed to keep warm by cycling there!!!!

From what Andy said on feel of carcass, and tread patterns, and what you have found in testing we have the right choice in the Pirelli Rosso's I think.

Roll on next year

Merry Xmas and Happy New Year
Steve

A pic of the front tyres I took with me, so the Bridgestones aren't included as Mark from Holbeach brought those along to the track

Nice one for going out and sorting this out once and for all, but can't there be a bit more leaway in the 'first 3 rounds' aspect of running last year's rubber hoops? Plus I can't do the 1st round due to the date changes.

I put a new set on after being curly fingered at Castle Comb and could get at least another couple of seasons out of them yet.


It's not the size of the dog in the fight that matters, but the size of the fight in the dog.
