Continental Circus...

Post by Devon Eleven » Thu Oct 27, 2016 9:54 pm

Well my beloved continental tyre has finally decided it doesn't want to play anymore....

Don't think my Holts tyre weld will ever sort this out will it?

Lost pressure at 70mph on the a30 this morning and was shredded within a few hundred metres getting into the layby.

Any spare wheels in the Devon area going to waste?

Nice! Rite of passage getting a total sidewall failure. Shame you weren't doing 150 on the Dottinger :thumbsup:
