The rear tire was VERY low on air pressure. The Big Swede had been teasing me, saying he had let the air out, but he wouldn't DARE!
I pumped it back up and it was ok till I got home, but it obviously has a slow leak, as it was a bit softer when I put it up on the repair stand.
It is TOTALLY worn, how did it get THAT bad?
I have been negligent in record-keeping, I found. There was no mention in the Jamis log book of when I put this tire on. I had to go back in the blog to find that I mounted this tire, a Performance GT2, on December 30, 2006, at about 2,273 miles. So it has lasted about 2,313 miles. I guess that is not TOO bad.
Riding home I saw this model for sale, on Dallas St., sitting with some table and chairs. At first I thought it was a Cutty Sark, like mine, but it is actually the good ship Thermopylae.
Looks like he didn't get any father than I have with my Cutty Sark, see below. Do not know how much he is asking for it.
