Did it on the tandem and saw oodles of punctures both on the way to Stratford and all the way around. I reckon it's a combo of people buying a (budget) new bike when they start training, not replacing the (cheap) tyres throughout whatever training they do and then riding 160k on cheap worn out tyres run at too high a pressure.
That and the rain.
