How long do you think I drove down a forestry road with this flat?

Bonus points on the over/under whether the rim is damaged or not! Two free internet cookies are up for grabs!

wheel is not damaged. I'd say approximately 3 miles. Wife drove 2 on one and it was in a bit better shape than that.

Passenger tire (115T rating michelin x-ice, my dad bought them, I told him he was an idiot when he did, and I suffered for it after buying the truck off of him haha). I actually had three flats total, all during transits between recce stages. The last one was a really slow leak though!

You guys are waaaay low on the kms driven though. I was only doing 20km/h ;)

Bet you could do 40-50 miles on a tire like that if you took it slow. Would suck though. Rim should hold air.

Oh, you're going by kilometers? Well my guess of 3 miles is still valid. That's like 38km's or something.

What was your airspeed velocity and did you happen to be carrying an un-ladened swallow?

Strange game.

The only winning move is not to play.

How about a nice game of chess?

Don't we usually rip non-GRM people for doing this?

I've heard of people letting some air out of the tires for low-traction situations; you really took it to the extreme.
