Honda and Michelin Both Win the "Nightmare of the Year" Award
2008-05-23 12:30:00 Just when I thought my tire saga was over...it isn't. I've blogged before about my issues with the Michelin Pax tires and my Honda Odyssey. I thought I was going to be smart this time around and save a few hundred dollars by buying the Pax tires - the only ones that fit the 2005 (and 2006 and 2007) Odyssey Touring Model - from our local Sears. Not only were they cheaper than Honda's price by a little but by a lot 'cause they were on sale. My happy dance turned into a nightmare episode yesterday.I dutifully brought my Honda to Sears after my two tires came in...at just under $400, that is actually a bargain believe it or not. I was told it would be a few hours...standard answer and just fine by me. Since Sears was at the mall, what a perfect excuse to go shopping. While shopping into my third hour I thought...ooops, why haven't they called me? So I made a quick call and was confronted with a diarrhea of words from the Sears tech...all I heard was "broken", "sorry" a half...

My Odyssey with the Honda Odyssey Minivan and Michelin
2008-05-07 13:00:00 The love affair with my 2005 Honda Odyssey Touring Minivan is now officially over...and why? Over a set of $1000 tires. Yes, you read that right. Whoever heard of a car or van that only takes one type of tires from one company that has now decided not to sell these tires anymore. Before you buy your next car, or if you have a vehicle with PAX no run flat tires, you absolutely have to read on.I still remember the day I drove my van off the lot. I thought I was special that I was even able to get one....the Odyssey was that hot back then. I was even more tickled that we had saved up our money and could pay cash for our brand new top-of-the-line minivan. That lasted for a few years..until my run-in at the 30,000 mile mark. Boy, was I under informed and not well read! One of the tires had a puncture, but being that these were PAX tires, I could take my own sweet time taking it in to get replaced. No spare tire was needed, no stress in driving on a flat...these tires don't get...

Michelin?s energy saver tires still exclusive to Peueot
2008-01-18 23:25:00 During the Frankfurt Auto Show, Michelin unveiled a new Energy Saver tire. ABG reader David R. was excited by this announcement, as it's about time to change the OEM tires on his Prius. He wrote us to say: I was hoping that the new Michelin Energy Saver tires that debuted at the 2007 Frankfurt Auto Show might be coming to North America.It looks like i was wrong.I just called Michelin and they said no dice. What's the point in developing a next-gen LRR tire if you're not going to sell it to people who need it? i guess for now it will continue to be exclusive to Peugeot and Europe. Too bad. I was looking forward to a 20% drop in rolling resistance and an additional 3-4 miles per gallon.We knew from the get-go that Peugeot would have exclusive use of the tires until February 2008 and that these tires will be standard on the 90 HDI and the 110 HDI 308 models. Of the tires Michelin sells in the U.S., the eco-branded tire is the Energy LX4. There's a video of the Energy Saver tires af...
Michelin Exits the Consumer GPS Market
2008-01-18 22:16:00 If I say “Michelin”, you think “Tires”, right? Well, that resumes why Michelin is exiting the consumer GPS Market. While you might think that this sector is technology-driven, it is not really - at least, not in the entry-level market. GPS devices have reached the point of being “good enough” and most people couldn’t care less about gimmicks like multimedia features. However, like any commodity, branding still plays a major role in selling the products (yes, just like soap) and Michelin never built a GPS brand that did resonate with consumers. I guess that the company thought that its foothold on the “auto’ market was good enough. It wasn’t. Permalink | Comment | Uberbargain | Uberphones

Y es que este último mes ha sido un tanto complicado. La hernia discal de mi madre robó todo el protagonismo a Olentzeros, Reyes Magos y Santa Clauses, por lo que las navidades fueron oficialmente canceladas en mi casa, casi nada más empezar.A nadie se le pasa por la imaginación, cuando planifica los menús de Navidades, que acabará haciendo las comidas más importantes del año en la cafetería de un hospital. Pero claro, si eso es triste, mucho más lo es para el paciente.

Michelin in Tokyo
2007-12-19 11:58:00 Michelin is about to launch a first: its inaugural red guide to the restaurants and hotels of Tokyo. Michelin Tokyo 2008 is the French food bible’s exploratory foray into Asia. Introduced in France in 1900 so motorists need never be without a decent meal on their domestic travels (not to mention having their cars serviced), the guide created its Michelin star system 26 years later, becoming the benchmark for high achievers in the restaurant world. Well, in Europe, anyway. The guide now reaches beyond the borders of France to a dozen or so European countries and, since 2005, to the US (Los Angeles, Las Vegas, San Francisco and New York City); remote countries such as Australia have chefs with Michelin stars (garnered elsewhere) but no red guide. Japan’s hottest city lures the guide down roads previously uncharted. Japanese and Western critics have done the eating and testing, and there is a substantial list of French establishments as well as the (predominantly) Japanese ...

Michelin guide Italy 2008
2007-11-28 12:03:00 The new Michelin guide for Italy has announced its new stars. After the recent lavisheness of stars for German and Japanese restaurants (including three stars for a sushi bar in Tokyo) there is a surprising paucity of stars for a country where - we can assure you, and with all due respect for other types of cuisine - you can eat divinely well...No matter, who cares about guides, you can always read our blog for more objective judgements...But we want to congratulate two chefs who have been justly rewarded and whom we praised here: Walter Miori of Locanda Margon where we had a fantastic dinner just a few weeks ago,and Piercarlo Zanotti of L'Ortica, for whom we forecast a bright future just a few months ago.

Honda Continues Partnership With Michelin
2007-11-07 09:05:00 The Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) announced that the Repsol Honda Team will continue its successful partnership with Michelin for the next season of MotoGP. Michelin and Honda have collaborated in the esteemed motorcycle racing since 1982, during which time they have won 14 riders world championships and recorded 193 race wins. The first race win of this longstanding alliance came in 1982 with Freddie Spencer at the Belgian Grand Prix and the most recent was Dani Pedrosa's great victory at the Grand Prix of Valencia on Sunday. "I'm very satisfied with this deal with Michelin because they have a great deal of experience and technical skill and I'm confident they can supply us with race-winning tyres next year. The situation this year has been complicated for many reasons, and sometimes our performance has not been up to the level we expected," said Pedrosa. "Michelin has a long racing history with Honda and I believe this partnership can once again create the success we all wan...

2007-10-31 20:35:00 Los Angeles still loves Osteria Mozza and hates its waiters, the New York Times comes up with a new high holy day and San Francisco gives humility a good name. All that and more in this week's edition of the Food Sectional. Los Angeles Times: Russ Parsons roasts in salt, Leslie Brenner embraces spinach, Charles Perry imbibes cocktail history with "Imbibe!" (and four recipes) and Irene S. Virbilia gives three stars to Osteria Mozza. There's a deluge of support for Brenner's piece last week, "Diners, stand up for your rights!" and a letter pointing out that service might improve if restaurants were more interested in hiring based on experience: "In Los Angeles, Paris Hilton and Zac Efron clones edge out those of us in the professional ranks nearly every time."

2007-10-10 07:52:00 Gordon Ramsay at last has something to celebrate from his venture into New York, with the news that he has been awarded two Michelin stars for his Manhattan restaurant, the London. The chef with golden touch but dirty tongue has had a rough time of it since exporting his craft across the Atlantic. First, the London was hit by a withering review from the arbiter of culinary good taste, the New York Times food critic, Frank Bruni. Then there were reports of dissension among the restaurant's staff over tips, and neighbours to the midtown venue in 54th street complained about noise and other irritations.

Frankfurt 2007 video: Michelin?s Energy Saver tire
2007-09-18 05:22:00 Michelin has a new low resistance tire called Energy Saver and they brought it to the Frankfurt Motor Show. The Michelin demonstration of the tire at the show has two cars on a slope rolling back and fourth. The car with the Energy Saver tires continues to roll 18 seconds longer than the car without. Below the fold is a Michelin advertising commercial with the phrase "a better way forward" that includes tires that get better fuel economy. Other tires companies are not left out of the green revolution, either. Yokohama Tire is also highlighting green efforts in their new ads.[Source: YouTube]

Brivio - Fiat Yamaha On Michelins In 2008, Rossi And Lorenzo Will Share Tea
2007-09-14 01:10:00 The pre-race press conference which takes place at every MotoGP round follows a pretty rigid format. A handful of riders are present on a podium, and field a selection of fairly predictable questions with similarly predictable answers. The whole affair has an air of tradition about it, such is the ritual of questions and answers. And so there was some consternation in the press room when the ritual was rudely interrupted, with the appearance of Fiat Yamaha team manager Davide Brivio appearing on stage. He then went on to kill another sacred cow, by actually talking about issues that actually mattered. Brivio took to the stage to announce a couple of key facts: The Fiat Yamaha team will run Michelin tires for the 2008 season, and; Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo will share a garage, and be on the same team, just as Rossi and Colin Edwards have been this year. Speculation had been rife on both these points, with a lot of talk that Valentino Rossi wanted the team to switch to Br...
