Any reason why turf ripper tyres were chosen above minipins?

I use mini spikes indoors last year and so did Alec, they work just as good, if not better () than mini pins as IMHO they are more reliable and constant.

Tyre choice will be part of the sponsorship pack for the event

Schumacher yellow mini spikes are okay on high grip carpet i certainly wouldn't want to use a harder compound tyre on carpet/slippy floor.

Mini pins all the way in my eyes

You can find direction to the Newbury club on the

The Mid-South Map

Its the old greenham common army base, now a trading estate, ample (careful where) parking and and the New Greenham Tandoori across the road.

Zoom in on the map and the pin is outside the ballroom.
