A friend sent me an email on a new tire that Michelin is developing. I wonder if it will really take off.......

Well, I guess it was old news then........

That's because it's French! Remember what Mel Gibson said about the French in Patriot?

yep they had a display on that at the 05 detroit auto show. I think that tire woudl really give one a headache trying to find acceptalbe looking rims to go with the tire design. Just think though, if they made 24 inch tires like that you could be the first to have 26's in the 'hood. another whole 2' of rim extension!!!!!!!!!!

i think it suppoed to have a side wall. i am pretty sure it looks like that for display.

Canada OK Heh! France didn't allow the USAF to fly B-1 bombers over their airspace in 1983. President Regan had a special delivery for Kadafy in Libiya. It had to do with his, "Line of Death", in the Med. I used Michelin tires on my bikes until they didn't appreciate how if it wasn't for the US Army they'd be speaking German! Michelin is now making the claim that they invented the 1st radial motorcycle tire. That honor goes to Pirelli with the MP7 in 1983 for the lunch of Honda's VF1000R. Do you know how the French Army wins wars? Fry the Computer Guy knows this one well! Tell'em Fry!

Earl? No Dates. I have to make a correction, those were F-111 bombers along with F-14's & A-6's off the CVA's. We lost one F-111 and missed the mark. The Line got washed away.

French? Win? War? I didn't know those words were in the same sentence?

One jet was shot down. He was a Mexican-American pilot! The way the French win wars! They raise their hands and turn around and leave! It's true watch the History Channel! As for the tires in this years GP, Michelin, like the French, is going to have a difficult time beating Bridgestone. We'll have to see what Rossi does. Goodyear should reenter the war!
