Just wanted to let everyone know, there’s a major pothole on the Parkway East inbound in the “bathtub” area. It’s in the right lane, left track, and it was rough enough to blow my LF tire at about 35mph. Argh.

I’ve killed a ball joint on a pothole on 5th Ave in Oakland a few years back.

Fortunately, no rim damage. I wouldn’t even bother telling PennDOT cause that’s the response I’d expect.

Oh, well, new tire will be here Monday. Discount Tire Direct ro\>\<ors. Glad I ponied up for the replacement certificates;free new tire/free shipping/$10.50 for the new tire’s roadhazard… It’d suck to lose a tire with under 800 miles on it.

I severly damaged a wheel a while back, and they bought me a replacement withing 48hrs. That was a few years back, but it worked. Maybe too many people took advatage of that policy, and it has since been removed.
