jhetley | Incremental progress

Have acquired and mounted one new bike tire, with one new tube to replace an older one in stock. Rotate your stock, FIFO, etc. Could not acquire a second new tire, as that bike shop had only one of the size, make and model I use, chosen for resistance to road hazards*. Will attempt other shops later.

*Wearing a tire down to the cords does not constitute "road hazards" within the meaning of the act. This would be my public admission of criminal negligence in inspecting my equipment . . .
