    What's amazing, IMO, is that it didn't fail completely. It
    lost some pressure but still got me home. I think I know
    what caused it to fail. About a month ago I got a slow-leak
    flat on the rear tire, which is almost impossible to inspect
    while riding. No telling how many miles I rode nearly on the
    rim. Surely this contributed to the failure. BTW, this tire
    served me faithfully for 1200 miles--not bad considering my
    rear tire carries about 65% of my 225 pounds.

    That *is* amazing! I've seen lots of truck tires shred
    themselves that way, but never before a bike tire.
