🚲🪛⁉️ What #ETRTO size of tire should I get to replace this one labelled 27 × 1⅜ × 1½ ?
( Rim is slightly smaller than a regular 28" ( or 622 in #ETRTO ). I have seen some so-called 27" that were 630 here in #Sweden, but this 27" is smaller..? Current tire is named Semperit Superior 2000. )

(all the more reason, #TinaKotek, to quit regressive taxing of energy use, and start taxing the road interface: #tires)
"…the mixtures were far more toxic than the original #tirechemicals themselves and are far more toxic than the one compound previously implicated in environmental studies," says York Uni Associate Prof Ali Abdul-Sater…focusing on a single compound may substantially underestimate…risks associated with tire-derived air pollution."

best secondary car-related purchase (trailer) i have ever made beside the next best car-related purchase i have made.
This trailer has been infinitely useful even if the car is not technically "rated" for it, a cross-Canada trip and endless runs to the transfer depot, stores, soil dispensary, and rock yard have made it a huge part of our home life. Even if the lights on it only work 75% of the time (seriously... how can they not make these things more robust?)
And the little electric pump is so great. Can plug in to both 120V home and 12V car outlet, has multiple ends for different types of tires and inflatable things. Great for home, car and camping. Set a PSI or kPa, hit the go button and it runs until the pressure is met.
Highly recommend! (both purchased at CanTire but the trailer comes from many places under different names (all made in Ontario). The pump is CanTire brand Motomaster

Another #TransportationWorkGroup?
Why don’t you just tell the truth, Tina? #Amazon got your tongue?
There’s already a way to measure #roadusage in a perfectly non-regressive manner, isn’t there?
But, even more so than most Oregon Democratic leadership, you fear multinational corporations threatening your campaign cash, don’t you?
Hooey! You have already been scientifically advised on #tires.
Registration fees are the most regressive taxation.

We've had some warm temperatures here on the prairies the last couple of days, and it's mostly looking like above-freezing during the day for the foreseeable future [1]. So today I pulled the snow tires off the cars and put the "all-season" [2] ones on.
Please join me tomorrow in celebrating the semi-annual festival of Oh My Gawd Why Are My Knees On Fire And I Didn't Even Know I Had Muscles In That Part Of My Thigh.
[1] To be fair, this is about 5-6 days max. They don't bother to even try forecasting further out than that here.
[2] Really "three-season", if you live anywhere where it gets more than a handful of degrees below freezing.

Tire experts? The boat has six of these #tires on it. They have a total of 3000 miles on them, mostly with the boat on board. They are labeled for max psi 80lbs and I just checked them all and found that they are all at 65lbs. I was going to bring them up to 70lbs but now I'm wondering if I should. After all, either they all lose pressure at the same rate (which is doubtful) or Discount Tire, where I had them installed while the boat was on the #trailer, set them to 65lbs for a reason. Opinions?

I'm in agreement with those who believe the tire pressure warning indicator looks like an unclothed butt.

#MDACF - What #Mainers are Asking About #JumpingWorms
February 25, 2026
'Following a recent two-day jumping worm workshop hosted by the Maine Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry (DACF), it is clear that jumping worms are a top concern for #Maine #gardeners and land managers. This event brought together a knowledgeable lineup of leading researchers from across North America to share the latest science and management strategies.
While the first established populations in the state were discovered as recently as 2014, these invasive pests are now considered widespread and have been confirmed in 13 of Maine's 16 counties. With hundreds of questions submitted by workshop registrants, several key themes emerged regarding how to identify, manage, and prevent the spread of these invasive worms.
Identification: "Is this a jumping worm?"
Many Mainers are concerned about distinguishing jumping worms from other species of earthworms.
- Monitor with a Mustard Drench: To see if jumping worms are present at your location, mix 1/3 cup of ground mustard with a gallon of water and pour it directly on the soil (in a forested setting, brush away leaf litter first); this irritates the worms and brings them to the surface for identification.
- The Timing: Because they are annuals (having a lifespan of only one year), juveniles appear in May and June and are very small and hard to identify. It is best to wait until late July or August to confirm their identity once they develop their distinctive collar.
- The Look: Look for a milky white or gray collar (clitellum) that is smooth, flat, and completely encircles the body like a ring. In contrast, European earthworms have a raised, saddle-shaped clitellum that only goes partway around.
- The Behavior: Jumping worms do not crawl like typical earthworms; they thrash vigorously and wriggle like snakes when touched.Spread & Prevention: "How do I stop them?"
The most common way jumping worms move is through human activity, particularly the movement of soil, compost, mulch, and nursery plants.
- The "Hidden" Threat: The worms themselves die each winter, but they leave behind tiny, soil-colored cocoons that are nearly impossible to see.
- Arrive Clean, Leave Clean: Cocoons can hitchhike in the treads of #HikingBoots and #tires. Using boot brushes at trailheads and cleaning tools before moving between garden beds is essential.
- Plant Sales & Nursery Stock: When possible, choose bare-root plants and rinse the roots into a bucket to ensure no cocoons are hiding in the root ball.
- Contain and Return: Always dump the wash water and mud back onto the original site where you collected the plants or soil; this ensures you aren't accidentally moving "hitchhiking" cocoons to a new, uninfested area. If you need to dispose of the material, wash your gear over a bucket to capture the sediment, let the soil settle before pouring off the water, and once the remaining mud dries, bag and #solarize it (heating it to at least 104F) before putting it in the trash.Things you can do right now:
- #Solarization: In Maine, this works best in the peak of summer when the sun is strongest. Spread a thin layer of infested soil, about 6-8 inches deep, onto a #DarkTarp and cover it with a clear drop cloth, sealing the edges to create a "package." Place a simple soil thermometer in the center to track temperature. Research suggests reaching 104F for at least two hours can kill the worms and egg-containing cocoons. If you don't have a soil thermometer, plan to leave the covered soil in full sun for at least three days. On clear, hot summer days, a thin layer will often reach target temperatures within one to two days, but the extra time helps ensure consistent heating throughout the pile and improves your chances of success.
- Hand Removal: For small populations, you can hand-pick worms and drop them into a bucket of soapy water to kill them."Learn more:

Ordered new P215/55R17 tires for the Saturn. Costco installs and the drive home is curiously loud - is there that much new tread on these things?
Costco calls today - did we install your tries? Cuz they are sitting here in the shop…
Check the car - aha! P225/65R17’s. No wonder they looked bigger.
Back to Costco again…
