Perhaps it was the roads then that were dirtier, hard to believe !
Save hoping over to the other thread, I had read, perhaps here on PH, that the camera's would be rolling for the first time in a few years following the event. I assumed it would be televised and a vid made. Lets hope so

Thorns!
Not so many thorns about these days.
Look at bicycle tyre punctures: once upon a time you got punctures from riding in the country and picking up thorns. Now you get them from riding in the city and picking up broken glass. (Which makes me think unholy thoughts about what to do to people who break glass in the street.)
All the car tyre punctures I can remember getting have been caused by nails or screws. With a tubeless tyre these tend to stick in the hole and more or less seal it, so the tyre only goes down really slowly. With a tube tyre this doesn't work, so it's more of a problem.
