    He may be to busy to reply at the moment.
    Legend has it he finally has gotten the bent wheel and the leaky wheel seal replaced and now his tandems slide back smoothly however he cannot get pulled out of the shops parking lot because a red car is blocking the turn lane trying to make a left into the same parking lot he is pulling out of while a blue car is waiting for him to get out so it can make a right turn in.

    Tire guys use a rim sealant on tubeless tires which is often referred to as "monkey snot". It's pretty thick, but I'm sure with heat, it becomes liquid. A tire which has a crappy bead can often seal when a LOT of this stuff is used, so maybe that's what happened here...
