    Ask cycletreads about BT45's. Better than sport demons, guy there was telling me he had his knee down in the wet on them.

    (Had them after the demons on the old 250).

    Ask Kit about me going round the outside of him in turn one at Taupo in the wet. GPR 70s are great in the wet, but shit at high speed on grass

    wasn't turn one, I thought it was the sweeper..??
    I don't go hard in the wet. No reason to. Besides, if you dropped your bike, vs me dropping my bike doing the same thing, who's gonna come off worse? If I had your bike, I wouldn't have slowed down either..

    Regardless of whether it is dry or wet, what really counts is getting your tyres up to the right temp. The GPR70s will be fine in the wet as long as you don't try dragging knee right out of the driveway..
    Slob by name, not by nature..
