Lance Armstrong shares sealant removal tip!

Hey all,

A few weeks ago I had posted a question seeking advice for removing
dried up tubeless sealant from some tires. Rick Johnson (of this
list) mentioned that I might bring up Lance Armstrong in order to
elicit a greater response. I decided to just contact Lance directly.

Know what he said? Just use your thumbs and rub off the sealant
residue. It just rolls up into weird looking globs of stringy alien-
skin looking stuff.

It's easy enough and just takes some time-- no soap or water, no
brushes, no chemicals.

I've posted a few photos here:

So thanks to Lance and thanks to Rick! (Good idea, Rick!)
