2 Inch Nail!!


This really ruined my commute this morning on my way to work. And it was a duo path job too. Top and bottom tube repair. Right there next to the road. Cars whizzing by at 50 mph!
Then I went to the office at break and "What the W-T-F is this? It's flat!!"
So at lunch I break it down. Is it the top patch ort the bottom patch that failed me? Maybe both the way my days going.
So I pump the tube up and take it upstairs, across the hall, down another set of stairs to the utility closet. And what did I find?
NOTHING!!
Not a bubble anywhere. I must of failed to tighten the damn stem's valve all the way. It's happened before.
But on the bright side both my patches held while done in hast. And I was only 12 minutes late for work.
And I still got to ride my bike to work! Love riding to work.
