I've been a Michelin man ever since I bought the Pilot Powers. And the Pilot Races are sweet too. Instead of doing what I usually do and stick to one brand, I think I might try something else this season. Depends what kind of deals I can get.

Azoom, you got a hook-up on Bridgestones?

Why? Road 2's are suppose to be as soft on the sides as regular powers are everywhere. So all you are doing is making the middle of the front wear faster that way.

I don't use all of my front tire, so I figure it'll be an even race between the front and rear... Especially now that I'm in FL. I did think about running a 2ct in front and a Road in the rear... That combo may make more sense...

You've been round and white?

Yes, a hookup I have, indeed. The Bridgestone tire Gods are good to me, I'm now paying well below of $300 a set.

Care to hook me up with your hook-up? When the time comes?
