Well, if you're saying that everyone was comfortable in the wet and riding flat out becuase the tyres gave lots of confidence, then I'll eat my bike!!!

I rode at a pace which felt to me like I was on the limit and if I went faster then I would crash - I've never had that feeling on wets.

I appreciate that not everyone could afford spare wheels and wets, but you all seem to be making a decision without actually trying the alternatives.

Someone suggests using a tyre designed specifically for the wet conditions, and 99% of you put your fingers in your ears and go "blahblhablhaalalalalalala"

The cost of big bores etc. hasn't put people off, nor the fact that racing is expensive, no matter how cheap the series is supposed to be.

Most riders have been happy to spend money on suspension and engines to increase performance, but seem upset to have to spend money on a set of wets for safety reasons.

You're all mental!!





....and can you slow down a bit :P
