Thanks for all the replies and good info.
When I had the glass induced flat, I was riding through an "industrial zone."
With a posted speed limit of 45, I chose to ride on the sidewalk.
Half the sidewalks were sunken in and peppered with broken beer bottles.
It was fixing to rain and I was in a hurry.
I am thankful that the air did not leak out fully til I got to my destination. :-)
