a bit of drama this am.. I changed tires and tubes from the '99 original Kenda MB knobbies on my Giant Sedona on Monday night to Innova Swiftor City tires. Being a first time mechanic, I was worried about pinching the tube on the rim, but everything seemed to go well. This morning was going to be the first commute, but came to the garage and the rear was flat...threw my spare tube that I had taken out from the old tires in my bag and took a chance and filled new tube with the air compressor (about 80lbs) and made it to work. (1mile to train, about another mile after train ride..soon will be doing whole 10 mile commute!) I found a small leak right next to the valve, almost looks like a manufacture defect... glueless patches didn't work, so reinstalled old tube, and will see if I make it home tonight!

All this drama, and I still wasn't late for work..
