Marathon Racers tyres ok for this trip?

Vince, quick add name!

Wai Ling is freedom rider..

Any compensation required if last minute pull out ? Not intentional but can be due to nature of job. If urgent business travel is needed, can only inform one week in advance. If no compensation, I will like to join. Is the route on highway ?
