A warm day today, so back to the short sleeves and no jacket at 59 F ( 15 C). This is my first day back since last thursday. I remember going out into the bright sunshine and a mild breeze on my last day of work before a 4 day weekend, and there it was, a flat tire. I had just replaced that tube the week
before, so I pumped it up and got about a mile, before I had to deal with it. Appar the beer bottle neck that caught my back tire two weeks ago, slit the tire as well, so over the week the hole got bigger and pinched a hole in my tube. I had an extra tube, so I made it home without any mishaps. Picked up a new tire before I went on my camping trip. It says puncture resistant, so we shall see how it does on the highway bridge of broken glass.
