I'ma sew it up anyway, see how much life I can get out of it. Now that I'm out of the bike biz, I can't afford not to!

I hear that, just spent $300ish on tires and sealant. Pretty sure I can get tires for my car cheaper.

I certainly could use a mileage rebate on Minions…

But seriously you should be able to boot that with a UTV sidewall repair kit.

A little gnarly looking but at least it's not your leg again.

I went for a ride today and didn't even get a flat tyre! So far this stitched up frankentyre is going 2 for 2!

Doing my part today.

Had a run in with a swarm of ground hornets today.
Doing some trail maintenance blocking up a problematic cheat line and heard the buzz pretty much exactly when I felt the first sting. Then there were more stings than I could count, even got one on my ear! Couldn't run fast enough, then I needed to grab my bike...
I counted 16 stings when I got home, going to be an uncomfortable night but hopefully the Benadryl will help.
Let the cheat lines lie... At least that one.

They got me in the feet one time when I was wearing crocs (yes crocs) and they went in through the holes.

Ah, that's what the holes are for.
But ouch.

I almost cut the end of my finger off because I stepped in a hornet nest. Bit of a story there
