Which Inner Tube?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

After fifty years of cycling, I have lost the ability to patch butyl tubes. Tpu might be the way to go. Has the glue changed? The butyl? Park, and Rema patches no longer stick well enough to seal the leak. Somewhat off topic, yes.
