There is a lot of truth in what you say and I completely agree. I'm 58 now and the 75-90 MPH sweepers I'm talking about would have been another 10-15 MPH faster sweepers in the past. It's been a gradual slowing for me over the years, but I still like the rush of speed. I just don't have to go as fast to get the same rush as I age.

I guess you would have fitted a new tyre much sooner!

It was actually the handling gods telling you to fit a T-T kit!
