your super tacky's knobs get rock hard and dont grip to shit. Today i was out practicing some sprints coming back into my street, my tires are wore as hell 2.5 supertackys,, it was 10Fdegrees out so my tread was frozen solid, i came into my street at a sharp turn trying to maintain my speed and sprint out,, halfway through the turn i hit some sand and go down hard. road rash on my arm and hip, and to ad insult to injury there is a gas station on the corner and a bunch of a$shole jocks who were all there had there laughs,, 1 of them was the same as$hole who threw shit outta his car at me and my friend chaz last week. so the lesson is, dont take turns at high speeds on pavement in sand and thanks for listening to my rant. On another note, do any of you guys ride when its this cold?
