I took a ride this morning from my place in McKenzie Towne to Eau Claire to meet up with some friends then then ride out to Chestermere.

All was going well along the Canal Pathway until we hit the stretch between 84th and 100th streets. Some asshat had spread hundreds of thumbtacks across a 200 meter or so stretch of the path. Every tack was intentionally pointy side up so it must have taken some time.

A flat front tire for each of us and a bunch for other riders. We picked up as many as we could as we walked our bikes to HeatherGlen Golf Course.

Frustrating as hell. Hopefully no one was walking any dogs though there.

We called it into 311 and the non-emergency line and we were told it would be investigated.
