Flat tires vs. miles ridden
My last bike had a spoked front wheel and I was always a little leery of getting a flat. Now on my current bike they're both spoked, so my odds of a flat are now doubled. (Yeah, I'm a little **** retentive). So I got to thinking...what's the miles to flat tire ratio for the crowd?
I've laid down 28K miles so far without a flat. How about you guys?

1969 to now-
As far as absolute flats on the side if the road -
Not counting dirt bikes just road bikes two fronts, same tire on the front ,same night.
Was a dark night too.
But thankfully I had a couple cans of flat fix and made it out of the wilderness.
I have walked out to the bike and that had flats.
I don't think they count?
