Is it May or March? Brr, it was chilly this morning. Despite the cold, my daughter wanted to ride her bike to school again - we were going to wait until Friday, but the forecast looks damp.

We stopped about a mile from the school to help a kid change a flat (rear tire of his Mongoose mountain bike). I found it strange that he was a senior in high school and didn't know how to change a flat tire. That said, he seemed grateful that I took the time to give him a quick lesson. Upon finishing up, I handed him the biz card for the LBS (I carry extras to promote them) and told him to stop by for a flat repair kit if he's going to ride any sort of distance. He then admitted he doesn't ride his bike very often, he just missed his bus today and had no other choice.
