Sometimes I ride late evening or night. I live in a rural area. When it's warm out there are many bugs. There are other discomforts.

If I am riding and I get a flat on one of these rides all I want to do is get home. I was thinking of carrying a can of fix-a-flat. It wouldn't bother me to get home and trash out the tube, then do a proper fix.

My question is, does anyone use fix-a-flat on their bikes, and does it work? Will it get me home? That is all I would ask of it. I don't relish the idea of trying to fix a flat out in the swamps after dark with the skeeters biting, etc. Or in the rain, or in the cold and wind.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks
