Ha, you guys got in trouble. See, it's not always the women.  Lol.

One more day on this dang boat and I get to see my bikes!
  Yeah, but we got in trouble because of a woman, which happens often, or so I've been told.  Suppose to be no rain today, so still hope to get some seat time.  A safe one to all, and take care, Nicole... tomp

I just got back from a nice long ride and took a look at my back tire.  :o

The cords are starting to show in the middle of the tire. Time to order a new one. I got right around 10k miles of out this Angel GT/A, so at least I got my moneys worth out of it.

You really should check your tires before you ride, right?

That's how long the ride was!  :)

I just ordered a new tire, Pirelli Angel GT/A 190/50 zr17 from Dennis Kirk. $161 to my door, being delivered Friday.

In my defense. I did check my tires before I rode but the cords were only showing on one side.

Anyway, here's my new and old tires. Dennis Kirk got it to me in two days.

I didn't realize how much tread has been worn away till I put the new one next to the old.   :o

I've found the Angels go away fast when the two small center grooves (angel eyes) almost disappear.

Tires do seem to go away quickly when the tread is gone.  Perhaps if you moved to Australia or NZ, the pics would then appear upright.   ;D
