todays ride, cracked rim

about 50 KM out just behind a big rain shower we come up on a big fresh grizz track. we did,nt see him and didn,t want to see him either. 10 KM,s later
my left rear tire is flat. we pump it up and 20 min later flat again. we finished
the day with pump and ride. 151.5 KM,s total. the tire checked ok with soapy water. I happen to glanced inside the rim and this is what I found. must of picked up a rock just the right size and shape and wedged between the a arm bolt and the rim. the a arm bolt is gouged also. this is the opposite side wheel
Kent. so tomorrow I get the tire taken off and will weld the crack up.
