Famous last words from my buddy Bruce on changing the rear tire on my dirt bike. He talked me through the whole thing in less then 3 minutes. Then left for Colorado. Months went by and many rides on a semi bald tire. One day after failing to climb a steep hill we call round mountain, I thought enough is enough, time to man-up and put new rubber on the rear. The tire looked so good sitting in shed, I looked at it with admiration every time I set foot in my shed. By this time I could not remember a thing that Bruce had told me except, “No problem, you can do it.” So I did what every guy would do, no, not duct tape the tire on, but , youtube. I watched several different versions ranging from two and half minutes to seven minutes to change a rear wheel. I felt confident, it was a hot day and I now had my Dunlap rubber basking in the bright sunlight without sun screen. Well, many of the details have slipped from my mind now except for the four and half hours it took me to change it. The one bright note is that the tire has held air for two months now. I can really roost now….
