    lol desmo

    you know my situation mate... Still staying strong..

    It is damn hard though, 1 more month and then I am on it....

    If my driveway had some corners I'm sure I could srub them off after a few laps but it is bloody straight..

    I guess if it's really bad I'd wash it first.

    and YOU would do the FRONT tyre how EXACTLY

    No matter what you do ride as if the stuff is still on your tyre. Treat as you would scrubbing in a new one just to be on the safe side.
