    Rode my last tire farther than I ever ride a tire.

    the bike had been squirrley from where the tire was down into the threads of the belts.

    I normally ride a tire till 60% is gone and git a new one.

    Got a new tire on bike and got her put back together Saturday.

    Man how nice the bike rides.

    Gonnna have to pay closer attention to my tire wear.

    If yea ever had a rear tire go down on you at 60 you will pay real close attention. Your butt will do the pucker factor when you experience it. :(
