I had my back go out while riding to work.
It went squirrelly in a subtle way, to wanting to run out from under me in a few seconds....
Very much like hitting black ice.
Front would be a lot worse I imagine

And people wonder why I obsess over cast/tubeless .
The HOV lane I was in last week has a 3' concrete barrier on the left and 70mph cars on the right. A blowout here would result in my cremation a few days later. I'll be modifying my riding habits!!! Cool

We still don't know what caused it.
