Perils of hidden kerbs.

Re: Perils of hidden kerbs.
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.

Re: Perils of hidden kerbs.
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!
