So, I am cleaning my Mclean for a nice Sunday ride up Mt. Evans and for some reason I decide to look into the valve opening of the pump head on my Silca pump.

It looks clogged. Now, I have not used it in ages since I hardly ride this bike and can not even remember the last time I flated while on it.

It looks like mud! Or something.?. Well, this won't do at all... I unscrew it and look in the other side and see something kinda white. Egads, it just moved!

Holy smoke! I pull the rubber grommet and a whole family of larve fall out! Blech!!!! Some are black and one is white! I just got chills!

Man, what a wierd place for my bike to play host to someones babies!!!
