So I was pumping up my bike tire...

and went for an uneventful ride the other day.
Came home and took a picture of my bike, just because that's what I do, take pictures, and noticed something funny at the valve stem on the front tire.

Any of you guys ever had this happen?

I'm bummed because the tube is a super heavy duty one I put in way back a long time ago when I switched wheels to this bike. They're heavier duty than the tires themselves.

If they'd stay on the rims without tires around them I think you could easily ride on them.

The 'heavy duty' Goodyear inner tube I replaced it with this morning is really light weight compared to what came out.
