PSA "needed": Continental GP5000's

If anyone in their online travels runs across a killer deal on Continental GP5000 tires in the tan/cream/gum sidewalsss, please post a notice on the forum, etc? Thanks in advance!

I'm riding on one set of GP5000 and the rear tire is worn to the point it should be replaced relatively soon. But I've decided I want to purge the bikes, all of them, of blackwall tires and I had been buying from Bike Tires Direct, I like them but the last few specials have been blackwall only.

My Gitane has very few miles on GP5000 in cream, 25mm. The bike has so much clearance I am thinking of trying 28's (I cannot remember the last time I had tires that wide!) and moving the near-new 25's to the Palo Alto . And buy no more blackwall tires.

And I just know there will be a great deal, and I'll buy, and at that moment they will announce the GP6000.
