hi gang!
yesterday i made it all the way to the road from the barn before i realized
that something was very wrong. my front tire was flat! i had just aired them
up a month or so back. no obvious puncture wounds, so i aired it up again,
listened carefully, and blasted off. man, to hear those macs again! glory!!!
lots of dirt & gravel on the roads, but still- nice to be riding!
anyhow, my good 'ol cheng sins are in need of replacing already. they MAY
be good enough for another half season, but i think the flat was an omen.
i'm learning to listen when the eldo speaks! so, going against tradition
[cheng sin tradition], i ordered a pair of continentals from tires
unlimited. they are the TK11 &TK12, the ones everybody calls "bmw tires".
hope they last as long as the 'sins did! [8000 mi.]
later on!
