Had my tyre unseat on Friday with an impressive Ka-booom!!

I didn't think too much of it but then had it happen again today at the Bristol Run-Rider with much Ka-booomio which ended up with me having an early bath.

Coincidence or is there something more to it when a tyre/rim are repeat offenders?

the blow-off ๐Ÿ˜ณ will be either due to an existing loose bead or else will potentially have caused a newly loose bead on being forced off

I guess
