There is never just one problem...

Hey All:

Let me tell you about my last few days.

Saturday, about 40 miles into a 70 mile group ride, I flatted. No biggie, group rule is you don't
fix your own flat, it was resolved in seconds...no biggie. This is where the saga begins.

Ok, Sunday. I am looking for more miles, so I ride someone home after the ride.

On the way home, 67.5 miles into the ride and 3 miles from home, the skies empty as only South
Florida skies can. Funny thing, as soon as I pull into my community, the rain stops. And I am
soaked!!! There's more!!!

OK, I rest Monday and Tuesday (rare for me)go out yesterday to ride with someone from my group.

1.3 miles into my ride I encounter an accident scene. You guessed
it...Glass>flat!!!

Ok, change the tube move on...but it's a dud co2 and I don't have another. OK...I meet Mark and fill
up. Are you getting the picture???

Enter today...I overlook the bike and realize that I have ruined my brand-new front tire with
yesterday's flat. Worse yet, they are blue tires, and my spare is black.

Ok, I find some long stem valves in the garage and proceed to rip off both tires so I can change my
tubes. I picked up some long stems the other day...but they were unthreaded and I hate them. Plus my
pump blows off them at 100 psi. So I figure, let's change both tubes and a tire!!!

So now I change out the tubes, change the tire, and end up with mixed color tires on the bike...I
will always by black from now on..and order up some more tires, black of course!!!

I am now ready to go out for my ride...and it starts to pour.

Welcome to my world!!!

Would you believe I cycle for fitness and relaxation???

Kind Regards,

Scott
