Yea of course. I don't mind the rain (I do a lot of cycling in grim conditions) but it would be nice to get a dry day

Well we get a lot of bad weather and it’s pot luck this time of year to get anything that even looks nice, but look how much you are going to enjoy the spring.

I'm not looking forward to the emergency swerve section otherwise I'm not that worried about the Mod 1.

Th test is on on "high-grip tarmac surface, which gives optimal tyre grip in both dry and wet conditions".

My bullsh&t detector got triggered. Why does it not say "which gives best tyre grip possible both in dry and wet".

WTF means "optimal"??

I believe that they lay a different tarmac on the test centre's that what we would see out on the roads and it costs them a small fortune.

Probably what we used to call "Shellgrip" fine and grippy and usually only seen in towns on the approach to zebra crossings and some junctions.

When I despatched in London in the 80`s you got to look for it in the wet dark evenings and breathe a sigh of relief if you saw it lol.

I don`t know if the name is correct but speak to anyone who survived those days and I am sure they would recognise the term.
