So all of a sudden I feel the rear wheel jump and go flat right now. I pull over and what do you know? A dry wall type screw is smiling at me. It destroyed my rear Continental Grand Prix 4 Seasons tire and also destroyed my tire liner! Okay. I install my spare tube, inflate it with my CO2 inflator and all is good. NOT. I didn't install the tube correctly and about 5 miles down the road I hear an BANG and my rear tire is instantly flat. Not problem. Install my second spare tube and make it home.

So I ordered and received a replacement Continental Grand Prix 4 seasons tire and install it. Life is good again!!! NOT. I get my bike ready for my commute after 3 rides on the new tire and I see a 1 inch tear that goes down to the Vectron breaker, tire ruined. Yes, it did get me home the night before but cannot be used anymore.

Anyway, got a new tire and I hope that this bevel of activity has 'pre-disastered' me to many months of flat free riding.
