This one always puzzled me. You have to scrub up the tyres before leaning over onto the edges.

HTF do you scrub the edges without leaning over all the way FFS???

Put it this way, just keep half your tyre footprint already-scrubbed rubber. That way you've still got grip but scrubbing in the other half.

Then do it again and again until you're at the edges. Best place to scrub is in the slow group on a (dry) track day.
1 lap on any trackday is enough.

I don't get the problem if you can corner.
Usually I head for my fav section of road and as I'm riding I just gradually increase lean angle...job done in about 30 mins
I am with weeksy what he sed ,

but its all in your heads , iff its cold and damp take your time with pushing them and get some heat into them ,

I love new tyers in the summer Dry roads , ride my fave twistys and with in 60 miles job done ,

Dont think abowt it ,iff it is warm and sunny just ride your bike as normale , look were you are going ,and dont think abowt the tyers
