I mostly do it when I post inconsequential fluff. Literally no one would have their ride improved or diminished by skipping this thread. I'm perfectly fine with that.

BTW I flatted that stupid thing today, 10 miles from home, and a crazy toddler running around. I had to ride a little ways to find a safe place for him while I fixed it. That trashed the tube and the spare was mistakenly for the gravel tires (much too big). I called my neighbor for a ride home.
