Anyone want to buy some tyres with me?

[Andrew G]

Just had an email from Ribble with very good offers on Michelin Pro2Race and the new Pro3Race.
Pro2Race at £16.65 each and Pro3Race at £22.95, but with orders over £50 at Easter you get an extra 10% off. This brings the Pro3Race down to £20.66 each.

I'd like to get a pair of Pro3Race for racing but need someone else to buy to get the extra 10% off and the reduced price, anybody want to get a pair? I'll buy and then I can deliver the tyres (so long as you don't too far away) and get a cheque off you.

Any takers?

Pity there's only grey available so far... but I'll go for a pair of Race3's with you at that price.

Okee dokee Ivor, I'll order 2 pairs and we can exchange tyres/cheque at the next TT if you like. Are you doing the SCCU sporting weekend, 10 or 25, or both. I'm down for both.

i have a pair of yellow and black Pro Race 2s from when coloured tyres were briefly fashionable - back in the mid 2000s

actually they might be Pro Race 1s - I'll check

anyone want them for nothing?

Am I too late? If not, I could use some Pro Race 2s at that price.

[Snoop Doug]

I'll have a pair of 3s too - if like Lord Ingram I'm not too late like.....

Cheers - Snoop

PS - do they really only come in grey...? That's very John Major that is - red would be my preference for a tyre - ev'ry time

I ordered 2 pairs (for myself and Ivor) last night. I'll bring them to the SCCU TT if that's okay.

Lord Ingram and Captain Snoop (and any other lovely couples) - you could pair up together (and get any mix of 2s or 3s) as you just need to have an order over £50 to get the extra 10% discount.

[Mike I]

I've ordered one pair of Pro Race 2s and one pair of Pro Race 3s. Snoop, take your pick!

If nobody wants the extra pair, I'll carry out a test and let you know if the 3s are an improvement. (Note: The 2s were fine last year and the year before that, and I have no reason to think they won't be fine this year as well. I'm still not convinced they are any better than the 1s. Don't expect anything insightful.)
