• Conti GP4000's + heavy rain + unavoidable manhole cover = poo in the bibs this evening. Not sure how I managed to stay upright coming out of Canary Wharf. Roadie behind me congratulated me on managing to stay upright. They're great tyres in the dry but fuck me, they can >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> in the wet. Are contis being shit in the wet a thing? Back to Vittorias for me I think.

  • I don't think you'll get traction with any road tire if you're turning across a wet manhole cover though.

  • Just going straight on not turning over it. Normally avoid them but they're just terrible tyres I reckon. It's not just the manhole covers. Even looking at a wet tarsealed road is enough to give me heart palpations. Into the bin with you.
