If I know my pump is broke before hand, worst case I'll carry my $8 Walmart frame pump and a presta adapter if I had too.
My Cannondale badged frame pump failed and I got it going with water on the seals (spit).
I would never venture out on a ride without a pump unless I'm going around the block with grandkids. I have 2 mini pumps and a frame pump, so if one were to break I would just use one of the others, but I would never ever go out with none. Even though I haven't had a flat in about 6 months I can almost guarantee you the day I decide to ride a long ways without a pump I'll have a flat! Just for the sole purpose of teaching me a lesson!
