Northwest Recreation

Because of the thorns that constantly get stuck in tires, I think it is only fair to cover one possible remedy for tire punctures.  This remedy, tire slime, is an effective way to control the leakage of air from a puncture in your tire tube.  There are several different options, each of which will be discussed in upcoming articles on NW Recreation.  For those who have bikes, dirt bikes, ATVs, cars, etc, it is important to consider these remedies to avoid the possibility of being stranded or walking back to a gas station.

Being prepared is an excellent way to prevent such results, and the three things we will discuss here will be:

• Tire slimed bike tubes
• Tire slime in bottle
• And generic slime in tubes

All three have a variety of benefits, and will be addressed in upcoming posts.  Happy November!
