Always carry a patch kit and time is not an issue on my rides. My rides are also not more than 10-15 miles from my drive way so getting home is not an issue either. If I were going on farther or gnarly rides I would most likely carry a Patch Kit and a Patched Tube...

Yep... I have had this problem even in unopened tubes. I also put a small tube of Super Glue in my kit just in case. The super glue also has other uses if needed...
