Zavo - they have similar tire technology as race cars do. Different treads and compounds for different conditions. As was repeatedly mentioned though - the correct air pressure is very crucial in minimizing crashes in wet conditions.

I have to make a slight correction in my last post where I mentioned the desire to see Adam Yates make the podium...I was referring to the GC podium. Of course he will be on the podium as winner as best New Rider - which is very much deserved.

The Sky Team beer drinking segment just televised was very good.....cheers boys!

Hey James......thanks for sharing and please tell your buddy we said thanks too! Those are some really nice pics! Looks like Aussie Michael Matthews in the green helmet.

Did he get any of the hawt polka dot girls? For some reason, they were my favourites!
