Well, had to happen eventually. Had to make an almost u-turn onto another street, with traffic flying along perpendicular to the turn. So, I swung around a little too tightly and bit the curb with the right rear wheel and tire.
Took a rather large gouge out of the tire, and scraped the rim. /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_mad.gif /phpBB/images/smiles/icon_cry.gif At least it didn't go flat, but now have to replace the tire, and since I have close to 6000 miles, decided to order two new rear tires.
The tires are not too troubling, BUT I HATE scraping the rim. I'm hoping it can be cosmetically fixed.
Just wanted to vent...
