tire fire pyre?
Michelin makes a damn fine tire.
Had he been wearing a PFD, he may have lived.
Big Tire?
The circumstances of the shipwreck were still unexplained.
'Nobody saw anything, nobody heard anything. The sea was calm, but there was a thick fog that didn't lift until the middle of the day,' a spokesman for the Atlantic maritime prefecture said.
Edouard Michelin's body was found in the water near the island of Sein, off the coast of Finisterre in northwest France.
Police were still searching for the body of a local official who was with Michelin in the boat.
That's near the Ile of Lucy, for those if you in Rio Linda.
LTX MS advocate, here.
Since he was a Frog, I guess you could say, "He croaked."
Too bad about Edouard Michelin and the boating accident. It's an awfully young age to go. Many people in France referred to him as "l'Americain" due to his business and management style that was learned here when he directed North American operations. Michelin has about a dozen plants in this country.
They're a little expensive, but I opt for Michelin Pilots for my cars whenever possible. Good wear characteristics, predictable, quiet, comfortable.
I've been tempted to try Michelin Pilots for my motorcycle tire, but I've had such consistently good luck with the Metzeler brand, I'm compelled to stick with them. I once had to purchase Dunlops under duress and they were horrible. Can't wait to get a new set of Metzeler M-1 Sportecs for my bike...
