Well, I'm here at the center of Hollywood, it's a little far away, right? This is Melrose Motor, very close to the street in Melrose, we are going to see the road, two kilometers from Hollywood Avenue, where I'm going to go now to take a walk, but what am I doing here? Now is the time to tell you what is happening with the rim, the most detailed I can. I left Mexico with the Spirelli, both front and rear. I already made several comments, 11 points for this rim. When I arrived in Quebec, I had traveled about 9,000 kilometers. The rear rim still had a 20%, the front one more than half, it was new, I suffered a lot, but it was the best time to make the change. I already told you, I decided that later things would be complicated if the decision was very good. The routes from there forward, I would say that the last 5,000 kilometers before reaching Alaska, including Alaska and the return, the routes are terribly aggressive, very aggressive, they destroy any type of rim, it doesn't matter the brand, it doesn't matter the quality, they destroy them, half of the time of life, I already knew it, 4 years ago I had that experience, not only me, but 5 others who were with me, we all arrived, but there no more Alaska, where in Fairbanks we made the changes, all. This time it was not the exception, the front rim was very good, it had for many kilometers more, several thousand, the rear rim was half played. With approximately 7 or 8 thousand kilometers, the pavement had already destroyed it. I changed rims in Fairbanks, but unfortunately many people this year, they all came with problems, as I tell you about rims, so the two most important places were complicated, either with work or my rear rim measure, I didn't have it, I was going to change only the rear, in fact I did that. Guys, I had to wait 4 or 5 days, the Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR, they are rims that in this area of Alaska are considered premi The only options I had for my bike at that time because I couldn't wait, very expensive to be there waiting for a rim, were a Continental Teka C70 used with a 10% use, that I had taken it from someone who went to Dead Horse and returned and said he didn't I took the Continental, used, I paid it at half the price, and it's the one I have now, I've already played, but I've arrived in Mexico. The second issue, I arrived here with the front rim, very well played, the one I had changed in Quebec, it's a rim that already goes 14,000 km, and I couldn't continue. I mean, from here I would have to make a decision of 500 km, no more and with sweat. I started looking for rims, obviously Sunday, no, on Monday I don't know why, but the big places are closed and I found this option, I'll repeat it again, there is Melrose Moto, there I'll leave the data. I found a rim, I bring it here, you want the Pirelli, the Pirelli, you want nothing more than two days. For tomorrow I can have an option, Korean, I don't know them, I'll never try them, brand, what's the brand of the tire? What brand do you get me? Cinco. Cinco. Cinco, from Korea. Never, but well, there I show them a little, it looks good, I mean, also with taquitos, 70, 30, we're going to go to the space, but hey, there it is, I said, I'm not going to think about it, with it, and then when I can, I place the ones I So, that's a little bit of the story of the tires, then I'll make a video again, remember that I'm organizing some talks, and where I'm going to plunge all these experiences, with all the details of the world, as much as possible, including theme of the tires, be it the ones you Well guys, to close, I want to add something in this video, today we're at 12th of September, two weeks ago I got here, I finished this trip, you saw the video, it was recorded in Los Angeles, then I continued the trip to Laredo, what I want to thank the people of Pirelli, I would say, before I got in Canada, they were in contact with me, they sent me a WhatsApp, they Guys, thank you very much,
