everytime i try and ride my bike (like with friends around town), i almost always pop a tire, or so it seems.

i'm never doing anything when it pops, i'll just be riding along and, pop.

why does it keep popping?!

check for a lose spoke comming through, or a burr on your rim.

do you have a rim strip? check for loose spokes and burs on the rim like they said, and maybe try buying good toobs, you get what you pay for in this case. they sell thicker ones, also if your running dirt tires on street they will pop more often.
