POP! HISSSSSSSSssssssss...

I was cutting through the Food Lion / BP Gas station parking lot access only 1 mile from home when I hit some sort of metal thing with a sharp edge. It made a bit of a gash in my tire - enough that I wasn't sure the tube wouldn't try to poke through. I didn't have a dollar bill but did have a piece of scrap paper. I folded it and stuck it between the tube and tire where the gash was, pumped it back up and was on my way. It held for the ride to work. I'll check on it at lunch.

Nice temps for a ride this morning: 68F and low humidity. High is only supposed to be 80.
