A puncture vine thorn, Uh, ohhhhhh...



I got a flat the other day, and was horrified to find it came via a PV
thorn! Yeah, I know, big deal, right? Well the thing is, in the almost
five years I've lived in the sunny Carolinas, I have _never_ seen one of
these menaces here. Heck, other Cackalacky cyclists look at me funny
when I mention the demons, they've never even heard of em!.

That may soon change thouigh, If they've managed to infiltrate our fine
states. :-3(
