I commute with a trunk bag, so I've always got a spare tube & patches. My mountain and road bikes have the little triangle shaped seat bags.
I always carry a spare tube in my saddle bag. But since this flat occurred over night while it was just sitting in my front hallway, I thought I'd give the patch kit a shot.
