$1 donations from everyone that wants to see a good contest...first to change the tube and 20 pumps of a hand pump takes all. could be fun...

Maybe I can bring my wheel whose tires readily comes off once the tire is deflated. Kinda dangerous but great for a tube changing contest.

Do it on an Angelope. And you can use only your clenched butt cheeks. No tire levers.

Reminds me of Deuce Bigalow, the line where Eddie Griffin's character was all,
"One time I dropped a cigarette butt on his floor, and he made pick it up with, my ass crack!!"

I've got some wheels that are mind-bendingly difficult to get the tires off of. I mean, so hard that he first time I tried, I broke 4 or 5 tire levers and wound up hurling the wheel I was working on across the garage in a fit of fury. I would donate them to the contest, just to have the opportunity to watch someone else struggle with them. But they'd have to be nice to them. They are super pricey wheels.

everyone should have the same type of wheel then they can decide what tire they want to enter with. some are easier to take off than others....to make it even more interesting, the contestants can each toss in $5 along with any donated $$$ and then it would get a bit more interesting as the pot grows.....i can see this happening in a huge parking lot such as Trader Joes on Sepulveda or the grass at rancho park which we haven't taken advantage of yet....
