Default PSA: Large pothole on Cambridge St heading towards the pike entrance. Fell victim

to this pothole because a cab wouldn't keep in his lane and started to come into my lane and I was forced to hit it. Blew out one of my Wintersport M3s and had to use the widow maker. Ugh!

It's at the light right after you cross over the pike...that hole re-appears every time plows go over it or a big rain storm.

Default I got a closer look this morning of it and it is HUGE...I can't believe my wheel wasn't bent

or cracked from hitting that yesterday.

Good news is, no visible damage to the tire (cracks, rips, holes, etc). I'm thinking the beading may have separated causing my flat. Now to find out if the beading can be reset if this is the case so that I don't have to buy a new tire or set of tires.
