Is this tire toast…?

Can’t even make this one up. I changed my rear tire on Saturday afternoon with a brand new one. 14 miles into my first ride the next morning… bammo.

With some punctures I feel like a tire can sort of heal itself a bit and carry on… but… oof. I’m wondering if it’s even worth putting a new tube in to see what happens. Probably not safe?

I’m so annoyed. Never seen anything like this. That was an expensive 14 miles.

I welcome your thoughts…
