Run your OL outside without getting it dirty.

I have not gotten my OL LC yet, but I know it is going to get dirty in my yard so I was looking on the net for somthing that it could run on outside and not get dirty. I found it! It is called Rubberific Mulch. My parents ordered about 150 bags of the stuff to put in our flower beds and I am going to take a few bags to put on my track for my OL. the stuff is chipped up truck tires, but it looks just like tree mulch. There is no dust, mud, metal, etc. to worry about because it is just rubber. It will also be a soft landing if I roll my OL (which *IS* going to happen).

you can learn more about the stuff at their web site:

that is some interesting stuff i never knew such stuff existed....i assume they do not chip tires with wire reinforcing, that would make some dangerous stuff.

yes they do chip up radials (reinforced tires), but before they package them they run electro magnets over them to "suck" out the metal pieces. It's really a cool process.

Does it come in sizes? The stuff I've seen has pretty big chips, too big for an OL.
