Holes in the Road in Prince Frederick
Be extra careful going thru PF today in the rain. Those "divets" that SHA has dug out in various spots are well disguised by standing water.

I hit one on the northbound side just past the firehouse. Tore a huge-unrepairable hole in one of my 6 month old tires (and I was only going about 40 mph).

Apparantly I'm not the first victim.

Go back where you bought the tire from if you paid the extra couple of $$ for the 'road hazard' insurance

I believe I did (double checking my reciept when I get home) but I got them at Costco up in Frederick when I was up there visiting my dad. He swears by them. This morning I just swore.
