    I quite like these tyres...

    finally managed to give me enough confidence to do the attached, but more so, I quite like where their advertising is going.. Just thought I'd share..

    If you're coming for the MotoTT trackday we can see how the Conti's do against the Powers..

    You've got a more modified bike but I won't hold that against you.

    Next Friday. 20 minute sessions.

    I want a 19 minute headstart and you need to be tied in a straight jacket when the flag drops.

    So when were you a little girl???

    P.S - I'm serious - I want to follow someone good to learn some lines, if you can restrain yourself for the Worlds Slowest Indian to keep you in sight for a coupla mins.

    I reckon that advertisement stinks. You just like it cause it's orange.

    MotoTT day soon!

    Heya A,

    I was asking buggy if he already had a place.

    I initially asked Peter to put me in the slow group but after the KB day I asked Peter to bump me into medium.

    If you're starting off the 1st Session in the med group I'll follow you around.

    --------------------------

    Hey Buggy how much do a set of your tyres cost??

    well yeah, the bike is orange.. what else would I like the ads for..??

    'ang on, there's a bike in the ads..??


    Not gonna be able to get Friday off to get down (I assume it's Taupo..?).

    In the wet, I'm a total wuss, so I can't say how good/bad they are (or for any tyre I've had!). And I've only had about a thousand k's on these, if that. But the 'damp' session at Taupo is when I first put my knee down. I forgot it was drizzling, and just kept going. Not a hint of anything. When the session was over (and I could have kept going), I realised that my visor was wet and fogging up, and the track looked rained on. But as for heavier rain, no idea yet

    Ask the local NZ test rider how many times he has fallen off whilst testing the Conti's, and then make another decision

    Rude to say really because he was pushing as hard as he could on them

    would you do that on any tyre you were 'testing'..? or was it not so much of a 'test', more a hard ride?
