Yep. I have been having problems of the same nature. Like you Ray, I have many years of cycling long distance. I have used continental tubs for many years with only normal problems but for the last year have not been able to get many miles out of the tubs without failure near the stem / tube junction

Is anyone else having a problem with flats that occur with long-stemmed Continental tubes? They tear right where the stem enters the tube.
Or is it just me after 35 years of cycling and fixing flats?
