How long left?
 
In my tyres, I know it needs doing but my bike is at work, need to get home, go to missus's, get home, come to work and ride into town. Total = 35 ish miles.

Depends on if you get stopped by Mr Plod.....

With that tyre I would think they would impound and make you walk home.

Dude, if you get stopped you are toast!

You know you can get 3 points for each defective tyre and up to £1000 fine? (never heard of anyone getting that though!) I think on your new(-ish) licence 6 points = no licence? Seems like you need to change it ASAP, there is nothing left in that tyre.

The only place i'd be riding with that tyre is down to a tyre place to get a new one fitted!

Is that the Dunlop I gave you? There was loads of tread on that, what you been doing to it?

I would do ZERO miles on that. I would whip them off and put them in the back of the car and drive straight to a tyre shop.

Get a black marker pen and draw the tread pattern on it then you will have magic grip and loads more miles in it, just repeat when the ink fades :P
