I can assure you that I'm not a slow driver (my other "car" is a 190mph Honda Blackbird - and I ride as near that speed as is practical on the continent). I've never had a car that needed more than 1 change of discs, usually at getting on for 80k+ miles. All my discs have certainly lasted more than 2 pad changes.
