I know tyres are expensive but this is taking the pi**, trying to get galactic mileage out of a set   :mfr_lol: :mfr_lol:
get a grip and deal with it

It IS shameful I know.
I have gone from a 12,000 plus miles  per year commuter to a wimp in the space of a year.
Still, have a few trips lined up this year. Scotland twice, Wales once, plus more if Mrs DB gets fed up with me at home all the time. :banana:

Yer not a wimp.
In the 17 months to the end of November 2011 I did 27,000 miles on mine commuting to Crawley from Essex.
120+ miles per day, 5 days a week, all weathers, and I rarely went out for rides at weekends as by then I was all biked out.
In the 16 months since then I have done under 2000 miles but ALL of those miles were for pleasure.
If someone thinks that makes me a wimp then they can  :censored: :censored: :asshole: :shit: :censored: :shit: :asshole: :2guns: :gun_bandana: :censored: :asshole: and  :death:

Thanks Boomer, I feel a lot better, though I have been expecting a detention from Debs  :sweatdrop:

I know what you mean about pleasure riding. I hardly ever went out on a weekend 'just becasue...' when I was commuting.
Now the weather has picked up, it is actually a pleasure to be on the thing.
