Of course I didn't have a presta adapter either. I cut the tip off a presta valve cap and installed it backwards, which served well enough once I figured out how to work the compressor (which had instructions on the side... incomplete instructions).

Way to go MacGyver! And if it did start raining I'm sure you'd figure out how to convert the old tube and nail into an umbrella of sorts.
MacGyver indeed - I have no idea how you made a presta adapter with a valve cap but that was brilliant. I want a picture! I spent the ride switching between watching the skies and my rear tire. I was sure it was going to go flat and determined to get to the office before the rain started. Both worked!
