My tire split all the way across!

The first day I take my bike out my tire splits in a x pattern all the way across. There is a impact mark in the center but I can't remember hitting anything.
Beware of race take-offs I think this tire was overheated and became rock hard.

Of course when a tires junk but still holding air there is only one thing to do...














































Burn your first initial into your buddies walkway!

i like running take-off's. you need to look carefully at them though - a blue hue is a dead give away there cooked - but also once they start to pot mark they're pretty much gone.

My buddy swears by them. Maybe he can spot a dead one from a good one. He's hearing that today's take-offs are excellent for the street; much better than a few years ago.

BTW, nice burnout!

Now all I have to figure out is how to make a C. The only ones I can make right now are way too big.

Careful coordination of head-on burnouts could give you a "C". If you wreck and/or hurt yourself while trying this I will not be responsible.
