I suspect that it wasn’t a tyre puncture but rather that I over-inflated the tyre, and that due to the wet, gravelly conditions of the roads, the inner tube eventually failed. The irony is that it’s because I checked the tyre pressure that the incident occured. By checking the tyre I inflated it, but when I saw the pressure was fine I decided to inflate once or twice more.
