I picked up a coat hanger on my bike ride this morning. Never


saw it and it got caught in spokes and made a ratcheting noise like we did when kids and put a playing card in the spokes with a clothes pin! Brought me to a stop real quick as I was cruising at a good clip and don't need another neck injury.

I inspected tire carefully before proceeding .....no evidence of problem.... if its flat when I return to beach next week I will have dodged a bullet.
