Seems with all the recent legislation there is nowhere to dispose of a rubber tyre. Refuse tips since 2006 no longer take them, web searches bring up large industrial recycling places but after ringing one near Totternhoe they say they can only take a minimum of 1000, business not private. Local councils don't do any service either. Other searches only bring up metal recycling or more business only services.

I only have 1 tyre to get rid of.









And yes, the nearest speed camera has already been suggested.

Worked, quick trip down, hardly had to say a thing before they were wheeling it away to their pile. No cost either.

I would have thought France would be the place to dispose of them, they love an industrial dispute. Diameter 225, Aspect ratio 55, Burn time 49 minutes.
