Ah s***!

Been limping it on inner dual only for 100 miles after cutting it partially off then using the Pioneer with strap to break the outer tire bead off. Inner has been dropping pressure ever since, damaged from outer blowout so been stoping everywhere for air but last the corner was hairy as s*** on 10 psi only on inner dual.
Towing won’t be here till 9 hours from now so beer and shuteye in the back of the hauler along the side of the freeway, new experience even for us. Kind of a bad end to Mother’s Day for Ang but we’re actually in good spirits, probably be funny later. Had an awesome weekend riding so it is what it is.

Found someone to come out rather then tow. Got to watch the sunrise with the tire guy. Fought getting the inner tire on for an hour gave up and running outer dual only back on the road running 55 is all because they didn’t have the right size tires. Back going:)

I am glad your back on the road, Here's hoping the rest of the journey is uneventful.

$@&!&! Tire 3 down.
7 miles from home, so after a few cuss words and abrasive maneuvers to get over off the freeway we actually laughed.

Time for new shoes all the way around before something truly terrible happens
It’s got 4.
Hey does anyone know any issues with running single outer duals only? Previous tires were 10 ply 2500 pound rated new ones are 14 ply 5500 rated. Brand new tires I’m thinking I can run Outwest till can afford two more inners. All I see is slight added stress on the bearings but wondering how much?

She's has had just a few miles running on four. You go and start to try and convince her to run on two at her age and I'm afraid that the different stress could cause a new issue to flare up and we all know about you and issues @CumminsPusher!!!!

Running on a single for a few miles to make it home is one thing but up in the middle of nowhere aka St. Maries, Id. you might not have a very good attitude while you wait for a few days for a couple of bearings or whatever, is brought in!
