Hi all, I've managed to suffer six flats in the last five rides each time removing a tiny thorn that looks like a miniature roofing nail. Each tire has been brand new and my question for the list is: How does one remove the base tape on tubulars so that one can begin the futile task of patching and re-stitching? It will make me feel like I took action over these thorns if I can make a stab, take a shot, cut through this tubular tire repair issue. Thanks in advance. (Old tubulars make fun dog toys! They grab on and you can spin them around! I have six available for immediate sale! Delight your canines!)
