[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1397089, member: 19880"] Winnipeg MB to Marquette MI, to Ottawa ON and then to home (Fredericton, NB). Made it safely but somewhere around Marquette, I was wondering if the rear tire would make it with 2200 km left to go. Apparently the long slab ride across the prairies with a very strong cross wind ate the rear tire for lunch. Tire was in decent shape when I started out (BT-023) but steel belts were well in evidence as I rolled into my garage this evening. Still holding air but wouldn't have made another 500 km. Note: The sides of the tires have another 4000 miles left in them for the right roads - not much use for a long slab ride! Can't wait to get the tire changed and then try riding it WITHOUT a trailer attached. Going to be a great bike! [IMG]https://farm1.staticflickr.com/957/27443017707_c6cfacd9f6_c.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
