Oh about 800- 1000 mile or a weeks worth of riding left in them, but just not worth disc damage, especially as I had the new ones here anyway.

yeah you don't mess with brakes, just means they'll require a bit more care on the start of the run up to the site, but as I'll be kicking off early and heading wales direction first, they should be well sorted in no time.
