Since when do CF bikes get flats!!!???

I got my first flat yesterday on the Ridley I bought last July. You would think as light as a CF bike is that it would float...no....hover over the road hazards, and the flat gnomes would give us riders a break, knowing we had to bargain with the devil (our wives) just to be able to get one.

At least it was a slow leak. I discovered it with a about a half mile left to ride, so I crossed my fingers, gave the tire a shot of co2 and took off for the end. I made it without any problems, but the tube feels like it has negative pressure in it today.
