Flats I can fix - been fixing flat tires since I was 6
As to fast - yeah - that I need to work on!
I've been incredibly lucky - I haven't had a flat on the road. None. Zero. Zip. And I've probably just royally jinxed myself! Of course, I've been running with relatively fat low-pressure tires, both on the recumbent and the DF up to this point, and the DF has a set of Bontrager Hardcase tires.
I'm just spooked by those skinny road bike tires!!
