After every auto collision some kind soul sweeps the debris into the bike
lane.

Nice Bomba! It looks like the perfect bike for the Leesburg loop (one of my
favorite rides around here).
I've noticed those signs for breweries along the WOD as well, it reminds
me of when Old Dominion Brewing Co. used to be right off the trail in
Ashburn. So tempting.

I've had a few flats with Hetres, but less than I had with narrower tires. I
think the lower air pressure lets the tires roll over stuff than would puncture
a high pressure tire. Jan's argument is true in my experience.

I looked at the photo, and it doesn't look that abnormal. We have car
accidents in Seattle, too. I just go around the pile of debris, rather than
through it. When you look at the photo, you can see that the travel lane
is clean.
That said, I had to go through a pile of bottle glass in a narrow

Part of the problem here is that the roads aren’t wide enough in many places to
accommodate a bike lane. Basically, there’s the travel lane and the concrete
gutter. I of course steer clear of piles of stuff like the one in my photo, but
the “sweeping” action of the cars tends to move the
The simple physics is that light, supple tires with thin rubber are going to be
punctured more easily than tires with thicker rubber, heavier walls, puncture
strips, etc. It is not a criticism of high performance tires, that’s just the
way it is. The things that make a tire puncture resistant
This is getting better and better, if the bike is in good condition. The

This discussion made me thankful for our lack of bike infrastructure in
Nashville: I'm forced to ride in the (clear of debris) track of the right car
tire. Bike lanes can't be neglected and full of junk if there aren't (m)any.
Never thought I'd be thankful for that. Haha.

I got a flat with my Hetres last night from the poor condition of Los
Angeles' roads--cracks and potholes. It doesn't happen monthly, but I don't
ride this bike everyday.

I essentially never get flats with Hetres. Perhaps because I run them
tubeless with Stan's sealant. In 4-5 years riding Hetres and now
Babyshoes in Madison WI, San Fran, and San Diego, I have experienced a leak
on two occasions that I can remember, requiring mid-ride adding of air, but

David: what rims do you use with the tubeless Hetres?
For the record, Stan's in tubes, as long as the pressure is high enough (I
can't define that beyond: doesn't work in 29er tubes sub 25 psi off road
amongst the goathead patches, while tubeless does in the same tires), works
very well, as I've
I currently run tubeless 650b tires on the following rims:
Stan's ZTR 355 (out of production)
Pacenti PL23
Velocity A23
With Stan's rim tape and sealant the following tires worked fine tubeless:
Grand Bois Hetre
Compass Babyshoe Pass Extralight
Pacenti Pari-Moto
Pacenti Quasi-Moto
Schwalbe
I followed the homemade chocolate recipe in EBDJ. I need to try again. I
used salted macadamias and should have used unsalted, and I probably should
have used a little more sweetener. It's pretty hard core (bitter).
Anyway, making it was ridiculously easy.
