Wheels and Tyres - Thematic Photography

I tried to find something a bit different today.

First a shot that says I should have dusted it down before starting.



Of course it has four wheels although they do not go round.



So there is no chance of its tyres wearing out or them losing their - 


Inner Tyre
Others just give up when they have been -

Rejected or retired
But still require you to take their better side.


If its owner requires a new set then all he has to do is - 


at the local garage.

It's too early in the year yet to get all steamed up, so Albert has to wait to emerge from storage.


Meanwhile you can either go for a ride or get ready for a wheelbarrow race.


Unfortunately the bike is too small for me.

To see what other wheeler dealers have on offer cross over to the links at Carmi's Thematic-Photographic-405.

Tires - Thematic Photography

I was surprised to find how often tyres appear in my photographic archive although not in a tired theme.

I'm old enough to have ridden a bike before pneumatic tyres were common place but I'll leave it to my daughter to demonstrate the hard variety on her bike.


There are occasions when tyres may bring a rider to a hard conclusion.

Don't worry! The rider's only n a scarecrow competition
New tyres on a new car are things to be admired as well.


But large tyres like this have to pass the smell test.

Lily and Scout make sure they are friendly
Some need to be a help in agriculture.

Sowing in progress
When it's too cold to work tyres may even take a rest.

Wheelbarrow awaits the spring
In some cases you only know where they have been by - 

The tyre tracks left behind
I'm pleased to say that when their working life is over, tyres may still provide fun for some.

Swing anyone?
If you are not too tired by now I suggest you swing over to see more at Thematic-photographic-364. while I ignore the red lines under tyres put there by the automatic spell check.
