weekend bike damage almost

Well you have to give credit where credit is due. First to Stan's, the front tire on Sunday got stabbed just right by a stick and almost wrecked the day. Well after taking the tire off to find a cup of sand a piece of wood and a tear at least 3/8 long all plugged with sticky slop. So the Stan worked and closed up a huge hole, good stuff. The Bontrager. that front rim took some good dig into the dirt and is still straight as the day it was new. Then Kenda, for a tire that stayed on the rim with almost no air and was holding a cup of sand inside and still beaded back up.
