Just had Sunday Lunch and the wife didn't want to do anything so I sggested a ride out. Got 2 miles away then pulled into a passing place to let a car past. Unluckily didn't see the kerb stone and did this
Was about 6mm left on it so unless anyone has an odd Goodyear F1 Assym 2 if they've changed a pair I'll have to change both front or source a partworn
bugger.......

I went the scenic back road instead of the main road as I was heading for the coast. National Parks seem to like placing hidden kerbs all over which get overgrown straight away.

I did exactly the same a few weeks ago. Very similar to yours.

I had kept the wheels spotless for five years and then managed to ding two inside of a month.

I really appreciate all the offers but decided to get a partworn F1 with a comparable amount of tread and NO repairs. Should be here on Tuesday. Hopefully they will wear out at the same time and won't affect tracking.
Bloody scenic routes!
