The brevet season has started so I was just checking the tires n noticed it had 2 cuts near rim, I am sure I never hit a stone. The tires have done 2100km , is it better to change them or let them run??

This looks bad. Better to change rather be forced to fix a puncture during a long ride

Hey Puneeth,
Well! there are couple of ways you could go about with your tire. When you are on a Brevet ride, the suggestion would be to completely be bomb proof with all the components on your bike. The thing with the tires in the pic is, you can use them provided you put a "Emergency Tire Boot" on it. Use them only for your commute inside the city.
For your Brevet, suggest you change the tires (Same suggestions as Anand).
