Beware the hawthorn twigs lying in wait for you in rural Midlothian just now as hedge trimming tractors spew these wooden nails across the small roads near me (Gorebridge,Carrington,Temple area)
3 thorns right through tyre and inner tube - but no flat tyre ! I picked up a tip to put tubeless sealant in your inner tube and I can attest to the fact that it really does work- at least with relatively low pressures - around 60 psi - not sure it would with say 120 psi pressures as the rapid force of air loss might not give the sealant a chance to seal the puncture
