Chicken strips - lets see yours
 
Thought it might be quite amusing to see how everyone's chicken strips are keeping, or should that be more to see how wide the wear strip in the middle of the tyre is at the minute!! :lol: :lol:

Here's a beauty of mine about 20 miles after fitting my new tyres, happy to say that the strips are slightly smaller now :D

This is how it looked when the Euro Trip started last summer.

And this is after a long strech on the Autobahn on the way home.

Here's mine at present , by the end of the run i managed to remove all the salt :lol: :P

Started at Hartside (well who wouldn't) it was interesting as the roads were very liberally sprinkled with salt (****loads of it) :P

this made for some interesting riding in the twisties ( like riding on loose sand) I reckon i would have been like the big boys to watch "backing it in" sliding around apexes ETC.

I managed to get the tyre covered in salt right to the edges :twisted:
