Do you think they invented wets coz they were bored at the tyre factory?

I'm sure when we get a wet race, peoples opinions will change.

A set of wets @ £175 will do you a season, and a set of wheels can be had for under £200.

It could cost more than £375 if you fall off in the wet and destroy your bike.

I did £500 worth of damage when I hit Mike at Cadwell.

Fairing upper
Fairing stay
Front wheel
Clip on
Screen
Front tyre (took a chuck out)
Brake disc damaged

...and it was a pretty low key crash.

I know what you're saying Phil, but sometimes £300 spent in the right direction isn't such a bad thing. Plus having spare wheels means you have something to sell on - You can sell porting on Ebay!
