Bisaniiwewin - pre-make over
Having arrived in the US without a tyre, my friends took me to a farm yard to choose a tyre. There were macho tractor tyres of all sizes saying "pick me, pick me", but they were not the ones. We were looking for a peace tyre. 

After looking thru a couple of barns, Richard picked out a wretched looking snow-mobile trailer tyre. A sport trax 20.5 x 8.0-10, 15lb tyre with a scar on one side. The other tyres told me they were better looking, but instantly I knew she was the one!

Erin removed her rim, scrubbed her up and cabled her. 

She was now ready for her make over and given the name Bisaniiwewin, which means Peace in the Ojibwey language.
