  1. Greetings......My first post here, I'm seeking your learned advice/
    experience. I apologize if this is one of those topics that gets beat to
    death.

    Here goes, I live in Texas where we have the GIANT thorns called "goat
    heads" I've tried slime/slime tubes and tuffy liners. Please recommend your
    favorite puncture/flat resistant tire. Thanks in advance!!!

    OK, there are supposedly puncture-resistant tires ou there, but I'm very skeptical. Heard Specialized makes one called the Armadillo (I think). What works for me is pre-slimed tubes. Add liners to pre-slimed tubes, and you've got a pretty formidable combo.

    And don't ride through goatheads. we've gottem, too, but they're not at higher elevations.

    btw - not recommended for all tires - read the fine print.
