I basically rode them until they started to feel slippy. Which was basically until I started having a few slides on them - then I changed them.

They last for ages though, I did a lot on mine before they started to slide. I think I went through 3 sets in total last year.

Started this season on the set I had fitted at the Donington round last year, I then had new ones fitted at Castle Combe. So I'm basically using one set a season, although at thje very wet Brands I wish I had been on a freshly scrubbed set as the tread pattern was well rounded at the edges by then and was struggling to cut through the water and grip, hence me changing them at the next round

I'm on my second set which will last for Donny (trackday and race) and the DSC 2-dayer, then new hoops for Snett and Cadwell.

Then sell the dude and go 600 racing next year - woohooo!!
