Simple question. I have about 4 old pairs just lying there. Do you throw them away? Sneak them out with your household refuse? Can they be recycled (uh-oh... pun alert)? Send them to the local morgue for incineration? Post them to your enemies? What do you do with your old tyres?

I leave mine lying around, in the vain hope that I'll find a use for them. I'd considered making one pair into studded tubeless tyres with abag of small bolts, but not got round to it yet.

Turn them inside out and use them as slicks.

My 13 yr-old has just moved up to 26" wheels so has inherited a pile of unloved tyres and will no doubt have them down to canvas as soon as we have a dry spell...
