Sorry for your loss, Tom.
I was in a rush yesterday afternoon, and got a flat. A long piece of metal a bit larger than an industrial staple, bent into a loop shape, right through the rear gatorskin.I changed the tube, using the frame pump to get it to shape, and an inflater to get it to riding pressure.I was on my way in no time, so that felt good.Sometimes it takes a while to get it right but this time it went smoothly.
I drove the other day in order to get to a kayak lesson on time. It turns out I should have ridden because it took about the same amount of time.Traffic is a b!tch when you are driving!
