Unwanted Hitchhiker

[Ray]

Ray, I think you are right, carrying all that repair stuff is the best karma for not getting a flat.;-)

Yeah - that and the fact that (with notable exceptions of a few pair of touring sport tires) I generally retire my tires with plenty of rubber to spare.

Of course you are right - the Karma thing always comes to play. I still believe Darrell's new-tire flat a couple of years ago, was his payment for 10s of thousands of dry miles. I on the other hand, have recently attracted every isolated rain cloud....
