Default E3's rule!

I rode 50 miles on a milled concrete road today....at 65 mph! WOW! these things are great. They didnt follow the grooves like 402s do. Ive had these on for a few months and havent come across any mill work to try em on till today. Great tire. Cant wait to try em in a down pour.

Come to Korea, it's been raining almost every day for a month.

I don't know anyone that looks forward to riding in the rain, I do it but don't like it.

It's a great assignment, but not for everyone. I've been here 2 1/2 years this time and 5 years last time...no plans to leave. Great riding here, and the women....

They need to slip these on at the Factory and ditch the 402s. Hell they have been running the same tire for what? 40 years?
