I assume I have to toss them. There is no way I can remove all of them.
They'll be gone after 1/2 lap. Heck I am inclined to toss the tires when they stop picking up pebbles.

Just visited the original site yesterday. It was a great day to drive up there from northern NJ. Route 97 along the Delaware River is a great drive.

The connection to the 1969 Woodstock is I was a classmate of Yasgur's son at Cornell University. I would drive by the Yasgur Farm when traveling to Ithaca from Chappaqua, NY
I didnt know Yasgur's son was at Cornell. I spent four years "far above Cayuga's waters" in late 80s. Every time I now drive from NJ to the Glen it brings back those college/road trip memories.
