My flats caused by those little buggers came almost nil when I started using Conti Gatorskins. Goathead season should be over. Usually problems in the late summer/early fall. I tried Mr. Tuffy tire liners and I still got flats. Thorns came into side of tire that is not protected by liners. Please for the love of all things that are good and pure (and also in the name of Crr), do NOT ride Gatorskins. Literally the worst possible tire choice in terms of rolling resistance (and they ride like bricks, too).
