I rode a metric century on Saturday so i was feeling the ride a little more today. I averaged 17.2 on the metric century and felt good. I rode today 48 degrees and definitely felt it more.

I found a bridge/ road blocked off and jumped on the sidewalk and rode across. The police officer on the other side did not say anything to me so i figure i was okay. I hopped off the curb and kept going.

I then rode over something on the road and my tire instantly flatted.

I called my wife and while waiting, i said let me see if I can fix it. I then realized i did not have tire levers. I put the tire back on and pushed to the top of the hill and figured i would wait until my wife came with pump/ levers and rack if i could not get it fixed. I saw another bicyclist and asked if he had levers. He did and i replaced my tube by the time my wife got there. I used my floor pump to finish pumping it up and rode the rest of the way to work.

what an adventure.... I was only 30 minutes late too.
