i got pulled up round the corner and was asked if i had seen the indicator which i replied yes then explained i thought he was turning to go to the station but he was just changing lanes anyway i didnt get a ticket so all was good i did explain the fact that you shouldnt change lane coming up to an intersection. all in all it worked out well .

travlled to chch to cycle treads to get a new tyre
arrived there at about 1010 and after a hot coffee started to warm up a bit
a bt45 tyre fitted and the mission was complete
am really impressed with the amount of tread on the tyre i think about 2mm more than the pirelli had when it was new .
i hope this will last a lot more kms.

does anyone else have a good or bad opinion of these tyres i have to admit there really good on the dry and excellent grip just not good mileage. ]]> homer https://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/entry.php/187-homer-s-Blog https://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/entry.php/175-homer-s-Blog Wed, 13 Jun 2007 09:03:40 GMT my rear breaks squawk dont know why have replaced with new ones and there starting to do the same any ideas? my rear breaks squawk dont know why have replaced with new ones and there starting to do the same
