That was NOT a fun commute home last night...rear tire flat upon time to leave work. No patch kit with me (reminder to put this back in my panier!). End up getting a new tube after walking to nearby shop. Ride about 5 miles, flat again. Seriously? Walk about 1 mile so husband can pick me up. Go to bike shop. My rear tire has a deep cut that slices it almost in half. And these are "flat resistant" tires...needed to be replaced anyway. Put on new rear temporary tire until my new Soma Xpress Reflectives arrive.

Then, on my way TO work my Superflash front light pops off (the lens, not the body) and crashes down the street. It's hopeless to find it in the dark and those suckers BOUNCE. At least I had my helmet light still. Now I have to go buy a new light on the way home tonight and maybe try to find that front piece on the way home...
