The one flat was the first year, and I was not yet tubeless. I pinch flatted bombing too fast down a descent, hit a rut.

I will attribute my good fortune to a good tire, extremely cautious (some might say cowardly) descending, and luck.

But seriously, it pays to be cautious on the descents on that race. That's where everyone flats or crashes.

That said, if I had the clearance I would have liked a slightly wider tire on this year's course--at least a 42.
