Tire of Death!
If any of you remember at the end of last season the reason I rode with Gennaro on a LWG run. I had a massive bubble on my tire which probably would have gotten me killed if I had driven on it. The thing is I never knew about the bubble till I went to drive the car a few days later, I just had a feeling to not drive that run. So anyway I have finally found the pictures of said bubble so I want to post them for all to see.

Looks to me like it was caused by some kind of trauma... from the look of the mark on the bubble, hitting a curb or some other object.
I've had the same thing happen before, although the bubble wasn't that pronounced.

Thats the weird thing.... no trauma. I didn't hit anything or get hit by anything. The mark on the bubble is from putting the tire down on the driveway.
As for the pimple I'd say it's more like a tumor. It's bigger than a softball.
