  1. On Saturday, my front wheel hit something, perhaps a rock, straight on.
    Then, on Sunday, I noticed that the tire had a kink, a bulge or bump on
    both sides of the tire--an Avocet FasGrip 700x25, inflated to about 110
    psi. The rim looks all right, but I'm not sure about the tire, and I'm
    wondering if its integrity, perhaps on the sidewalls, has been
    compromised.

    Even if the tire is still safe to ride on, there's this little
    bump-bump with every rotation, so I replaced the tire, but I'm curious
    if anyone else had experienced this phenomenon, as I've never had such
    a thing happen before.
