Hmmm... I'm finding what must be the only drawback of living on the Peninsula - every time I go out, the Avons seem to get a real work-out and if I see 7000 km out of the rear this time, I'm going to be lucky. Mind you, I've been monitoring wear rate for Dold Industries as part of their Viper trial and the wear rate appears to have lessened appreciably now I've got good suspension front and rear.
