I’m glad I didn’t hit this with my bike

I was driving my Wrangler home from doing some photography on Saturday and I heard a very loud THWACK sound. I knew something had happened but since I was close to home I just kept driving. When I got home and parked the Jeep, I got out only to hear the steady ssssssssss sound of my tire going flat. I couldn’t believe what I saw. The bolt that was embedded in the tire was the single biggest “nail” I’ve ever pulled from a tire.

I’m planning to take the tire to Discount Tires this week just to see if my road hazard will cover this. I seriously doubt it can be repaired.
