Only in Florida
Do you get a flat from a shark’s tooth, and 60 miles inland at that. Reminds me of the goatheads we had in New Mexico. Been lucky for a while, been about 2000 miles since the last flat.

Where are you finding a sharks tooth 60 miles inland? I ride on some of the many paved trails in FL and have a flat about every 3-4 years. 
Stop by the Southeast Regional subforum and say hello to the locals. Lots of Florida folks on here.

On the same stretch of Agoura Rd. (SoCal) one friend got a chicken (we think) bone stuck in his tire, and a lady friend a few years earlier hit something and ended up with a 2 inch glass shard stuck in her calf just above her sock top. Lots if wierd stuff out there, be careful.

PS They're AWESOME. They're blatantly unrealistic (there aren't that many sharks in the world) and obviously just out to have some fun with their $14.75 budget.
