+1 can understand your feelings about the evil goat heads around Denver. As for The tuffy's they do help a lot but can be hard to mount the first couple of times. Just mount get them the whole way around the inside of the tire fairly even then mount tires and tubes as normal. I have been running Tuffy's more than 20's years with no mounting problems running rims tires from 23mm to 2.50.
