Flat Tire (April) Fool
This tiny piece of steel, no longer than my eyelash, worked its way through my "flat-resistant" tire to puncture my tube and cause my second flat on Mach 23.

It looks so tiny and causes such big trouble. They must be hard to find too, on a black tube. Hope you don't encounter too many more of them.
