like a snake in the grass
have you ever had a spontaneous flat tire? my bikes hang on wooden racks in my living room. suddenly, my dog starts wimpering as she lay on the couch -- something's awry! and then I hear it -- pssst! I walk over to the rack with my road bike and hear air slowly escaping from the stem on the front tire. I haven't been on the bike in over 24 hours. it just suddenly decided to go flat. how bizarre! is that an excuse not to get on the trainer tonight?

Have you ever seen the Entity?
no, I haven't seen it, but you've thoroughly freaked me out now. thanks, chris!
No excuses, change wheels.
I built my wheels. Oddly enough I never (knock-on-wood) flat -- maybe two or three times a year in 10,000 miles. I think somehow in packing the bike last week the stem core loosened up and just gave out.
No, it's a SIGN not to get on the trainer tonight. Semantics, baby!
Yeah, a sign. And my computrainer is on the fritz. I unplugged everything to do a photo shoot on Wednesday and now it won't connect to the PC anymore. Excuses, er signs!
I don't think I would ride a trainer if I had a poultergeist. Would you?
outside always over inside when talking about the bike
