a sacrifice to the bike gods

[sistawendy]

For the third time in as many days, I replaced the front tube on Miss Indigo Bike. Yeah, it took me three tries to pull a piece of surprisingly fine steel wire out of the tire. It was almost certainly debris from one of the two construction sites on my usual bike ride, both less than two blocks from my place. I could have avoided them by riding an extra block, but neau, I pushed my luck. I wonder at which stage of construction the danger of this sort of thing largely goes away. They're not quite done framing.
