The front tire went flat on the way home from church. Of course, I decided not to bring any water to save some weight. Bad move, because I needed the water to find the holes. So, I had to go to a nearby creek and down a steep (and treacherous) bank. I almost fell in, but I did find the leak. I patched it, but the tube still leaked, so I had to go back to the creek again. It held after patching the second hole. I have a mini pump, and it took a lot of pumping to get enough air in the tire. The tire was cushy, but it was enough to get me home. I had a date at 3:00, and I was worried I would not make it, but it had a happy ending.
