Bikes: A few

Couple days ago was relaxing after a spirited SS ride home. Sitting on the front driveway with my bike 3 ft from me when the back tire exploded. I went straight up and so did my drink !

The cause: cheap rim strip allowed the high pressure tube to push through and expand into the inner chamber of the rim.

Moral: use better rim strips, I am a lucky dog.
