Tire-Free Rivers

Saint John River, New Brunswick

Saint John, #s 27-31

Numbers 30 and 31, Saint John River, Ken Corbett, July 30, 2007. I couldn't find a passer-by to photograph me with the other three, nrs. 27-28-29.	I also hooked a bike and dredged it from undeneath the walking bridge. It was broken and rusted, unfortunately.
	I hauled all five tires and the bike to the dumpster and tire pile behind Craig's Tire, which was just up the shore behind the walking trail. I didn't tell them, but they won't know the difference.
I also removed a monster truck tire, but I didn't want to risk my back by rolling it up the bank by myself. I hope to get some help soon, and come back for it. You can see there is an even larger 500-pound tire behind it. Update	There is another 500-pounder just behind these two, under a few branches. The City of Fredericton has acquired this property, and I suspect they will need a tractor to remove these behemoths.

This shot of the Green of Fredericton reflected in the Saint John River was taken by me from the walking bridge, under which these tires were removed from the river. Courtesy of Flicker.
