[Closed] Puncturing tyres...on a turbo trainer!

Over the space of the last year I've had 3 punctures whilst on my Turbo trainer. They tend to be of the slow variety, tyre is a specific turbo version pumped up to around 100psi. I can't see anything in the tyre to cause punctures, and the punctures have all been months apart from each other.

Anyone else experienced this?

Got the odd slow puncture on the turbo before I went direct drive. No idea what causes it. Probably something to do with the heat.

Mrs S's turbo rear has just got it's first slow puncture.

TBH the rear tyre is knackered anyway, and must have done quite a few thousand miles. Fortunately wiggle were doing a reasonable price on the Copperton trainer tyre I have now in front of me, so I will be off to the shed in a moment to sort them out.
