Default bad luck for toronto s2ks week...

alright, i'd like to add my tidbit to the streak that's been going on.

this is my SECOND flat tire in 2 weeks. the first one was understandable, nail in tire.

this one was really weird because there was only the puncture hole in the tire, no nail. i parked my car our underground condo parking and i swear the tire was fine. i came back 2 hours later and found the tire was completely flat. took it to get repaired and NO NAIL... wtf?? is this possible? i really don't wanna think it's sabotage because i'm helpless in the future if it is.

hahaha, i sure as hell hope not. i feel for ya simon, i'd feel pretty helpless if my workplace had dickheads.

i had a valve stem leak (3rd tire problem) about a month ago and had it replaced, i was losing about 1psi every 2 days, no biggie.

i forgot to mention, there was a hole in the tire, but no nail...

You can run over a nail that was stuck in a piece of thin lumber. The nail will just pull out as you roll past.
