Last ride of the year today. DH and I got out for 22 easy miles to the LBS and back. Relaxing at home, afterwards, we heard a BANG! Psssss...
Went down to the laundry room, where my bike sits - and it was sitting on a flat rear tire. The sidewall blew out. Glad it didn't happen on the ride. But if there's one thing we have a zillion of in this house - it's extra tires. Sometimes we have to rob Peter to pay Paul, but there is always a serviceable tire around somewhere.

Ended up the year with 3,039 miles - fairly low for me. Spent a lot of my weekends running and racing, which doesn't add a whole lot of mileage.
Also had 85 commute days. That's also pretty average. I keep trying for 100, but never seem to get beyond the mid-80s.
