So with pinch flats I'm clearly in the minority. Is the Addiction thread a representative sample of all cyclists?

Mrs. 333SP made me a goat cheese, cucumber, and avocado sandwich for lunch. That was a bit lighter than what I would normally eat.

I must go a lot slower than y'all - I almost never have potholes sneak up on me. When they do, well, my bunny hopping has improved.

Balance. Yesterday was a brisket sandwich, sweet potato tots, and 2 IPAs. Today I "enjoyed" some rice cake crisps with my veggie sandwich. :rolleyes:

I was moving quick when I hit the hole that pinch flatted and ruined my rim. I was taking a business driveway from the road and the concrete was cracked enough for my wheel to drop in and hit the sharp edge of an unbroken piece of concrete.

Depends. Are you a sleek panther or a lardball tabby?

I bent a rim but didn't pinch flat after hitting a pothole. I was happy, as that rim never stayed true from day one.

Part of this job is calling ATT customer service on a regular basis.... Yikes.
Woman told me she'd bring someone on the line to help me call forward then dumped me to an automated message telling me to *72. Thanks lady. |

No pinch flats, but I always pump up to generous though not absurd pressures. 85/100 in 23 mm clinchers on narrow rims. Weighing about 170 right now. I ride carefully.

Mini survey-
How many of you have pinch flatted? And when did reduced pressure become a thing? I've posted that I air to 80-100 p.s.i., and have been asked why so low. |

Just as another data point, I use the same watch as my primary bike computer on MTB, but I do use it with a chest strap, as that's marginally more accurate (required with my crappy heart).
Also a backup for road rides when your wife throws away your garmin 520, but it can't connect to the power meter. You'd need the Fenix3 HR to do that ($$$$). |

Yes- twice in one ride, on the same tire. But I would chalk that up to noob-ness on my part as it was the first time I had to do a repair on the side of the road on my first, well, "road bike."
I'm home now and this Garmin watch I have is a Vivo Active. Looks like I'll be doing some testing over the next few days to see if I have to invest in a separate HR monitor- either [MENTION=183557]rpenmanparker[/MENTION]'s wrist band (thanks for that idea, BTW :thumb:), or a chest strap. Choosing a Garmin 520/800/1000, et. al. will have to wait for my brand-new bike purchase, which is still TBD. |
Checking out a little Giro action, while awaiting the lowering of the sun just a bit more. The options greatly increase when one can listen in Spanish.

Even Vol isn't here this time of day.

Tried out a new coffee place after this morning's ride. Too much time gabbing so I was a little late to work. Worth it though.
Coffee was good but not as good as Peets. http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/x...AA4E3F3322.jpg |
He must be showering.
