    Ha ha - first time I'v been "bribed" to stop bidding! Those 605's are great tyres.

    Just checked tyre, it's a Michelin T64, still plenty of tread on it if you want to swap for a couple Heinekens

    At this stage I'd like to try the T64 for Brass Monkey, especially if the weather is going to be anything like last year.
