Flat Tire


My front tire went flat for the second time. I have a place on the rim that is wearing a hole in the tire. I fixed the tube with a patch and added some tape to protect it from the rim. After putting the tire back on and inflating it, the tire tread split. The tires have plenty of tread, but they are old. I have taken both tires off and I headed to get new tires. I was hoping to wait till we were ready to make out trip to get new tires. I am going to replace the rim tape.

I replaced tires, rim tape, and tubes on both wheels. I took it for a short ride, but I will give it a better ride tomorrow.
