Let's go with the tire analogy so as not to gross anybody out. giggle...I've had a bulge for the past few years that wasn't causing any issues so I never addressed it. It was also during a time where I joined 40 million of my fellow Americans with no means to pay for a repair (unemployed). Recently it became larger and I was in a situation where I had service coverage so I decided to get it fixed. The mechanic made an incision, pushed the inner tube back in, installed a mesh for extra protection and sewed everything back up. This all happened on Thursday and I've had to rest the tire for 3 days. Then I will be allowed 2 weeks of normal speed but no fast speeds or sharp turns. The things those mechanics can do nowadays. yikes
