First flat

1.5 miles from home my rear tire flatted. A sliver of glass sliced through my kevlar hardcase tires and punctured th etube. It took me an hour to fix the flat because the tire wouldn't come off without a fight. I spent 2 cartridges and wasted a lot of gas. Rode home in the rain.

Maybe I should switch to non-hardcase tires
