Well, since it has been over a year since I have had a flat. 5,000 miles or so. I guess it is time for me to have a flat. So, I had one when I woke up before I left. Then the tube I put in had a faulty stem. So, after I have it back on the bike and can't pump it it.

Then about 8 miles into the ride, I got another one. I guess having to change my tube three times makes up for not having the flats.

Hopefully, the ride home isn't as bad. But, we shall see.
