well theres a gamble

had to order myself a new rear wheel (having it built now) plan was to hold off till after salt season... but as my tire as well as my wheel are toast now the choice was made for me

seems like a waste to put a brand new tire on a wheel thats facing imminent catastrophic failure... so new one being made now

if im lucky ill have it by the end of this week.. but im banking on early next week

and theres the gamble... aside from the tire being a blow out waiting to happen... the wheel has just started making that metallic ping of imminent rim failure too

sooo.. wich will happen first... new wheel arriving or old wheel asploding and me going for another tumble?
