We should have done lots of things. Hindsight is a wonderful thing! But I've never owned/lived anywhere with a basement to have a decent tyre friendly stash...

That much and they would crumble on the first ride

They aren't for riding!
That'd be like opening your bottle of Chateau Lafitte 1927
"Showpiece" tyres.
But still I find that perishing sidewall unpleasant to look at

Maybe i should insure my stash of nos ird mythos amberwalls for more than the house i keep them in then.........

Oh! I opened two of them last week... was that a mistake?

Oh well, might as well stick some white Porcs on my boys bike and ask him to conduct some scientific research on how many skids he can do before they wear out!

I've got a bottle of champagne from the queens coronation.....it never looks very appealing to drink tbh. Prefer Adams prosecco.

In many ways just like the tyres...pretty on a shelf hanger......but, compared with say mezcals.......probably hugely disappointing to ride.
