tragically1969:
Is this you trying to apportion blame for somebody fitting tyres the wrong way round by any chance ?
Nope – it’s me trying to understand why it happened, so I can reduce the risk of it happening again – that’s not a difficult concept if you stop & think about it for a moment. Anyway I never said someone else fitted it wrongly, did I?
Thanks for the more constructive responses.
Not sure which end went first, felt like both together.
Not much chance of inspecting the road surface – it’s too busy, but I’ll have a look at my ruined Castelli bibs and see if there’s any sign of oil or diesel.
I guess just chalk it up to experience and take it a bit slower!
