Yet another evil monday.
I ended up with a flat caused by a strand of thick copper wire.
Pulled off into a park and spent 30 minutes fighting with my rear tire that have never been removed from its rim. I just love removing a tire for the first time

Then while inflating the new tube the spare's valve broke. ugh
I patched the original tube and repeated the whole process. At least the tire was easier to remove the second time. Consequently, I was an hr late.
I am now going to purchase a different brand of tubes and carry 2 instead of one. Than goodness for patch kits.
