Damn, now I need to know what the Badger thread was about?!
There is a photo doing the rounds of a bloke manning a track pump. The tyre he's inflating has just exploded. On the patio in front of him, there is a big splodge of white stuff. The bloke has a fairly comical surprised expression on his face.
Said photo got posted up very regularly every time someone asked the "Tubeless – should I or shouldn't I?" question until the bloke in the photo (who's screen name was "the badger") lost the rag.
Apparently:
1. He was a big fan of tubeless.
2. The tyre in the photo wasn't even tubeless and had exploded due to existing damage or something.
3. The white stuff in the photo wasn't acutally latex, it was an old paint spill.
Needless to say, this did not result in the desired decrease in the frequency with which the photo appeared.
