Flat!
There was a lesson to be learned from my two flats on Saturday. We had been discussing the u-tube video where a guy fixes a flat in one minute! That is neat to watch, but they leave out one important thing. Inspect the tire real carefully to see if you can find what made you go flat. Tracy pointed out a little shard of glass sticking out of my tire, after it went flat ....the second time. Remember to check it real good, haste makes waste. Always remember to carry a spare tube, and everything else you may need. And always carry tire levers. The one-minute guy doesn't use them, but I sure need them. And it always helps when you have all your bud's with you to hold your bike up, hand you tools, and provide the second tube when you flat twice.

If they were that good of friends they would have changed your tires for you.
