Recycle - I left my slickasaurus tires on for a bit over 1000 miles. When I took them off they still had several hundred miles of tread left, but the rubber was getting thin resulting in frequent punctures. Even with heavy duty tire liners, the goat head stickers were penetrating the tubes through the slickasaurus. I took them off and replaced them with plain ol' Schwalbe Marathons. That was a over a year ago and I've only one flat. That was a nail I picked up in a patch of gravel.


I'd carry at least one extra tube and a patch kit with the slickasauras.
