Subject: another ride, another flat!It's becoming pretty routine now, another ride on my new tri bike, another flat tire. Today's worout was supposed to be 15 mile ride, 5 run, 15 mile ride, 5 run. Came back from the first run and the front tire was flat...and there was a 1/4 gash in the tire. Had to stop the workout and get to the bike shop since it was 3:00 and Sunday. So, changed out both of my tires with something a little heavier and thicker. Also thicker tubes. I figure the mile an hour it may slow me down will be more than offset by the 5 minutes it takes to change tubes. Has anyone else ever had this problem? I was pissed too....i felt great on the bike and didn't hurt too bad on the run. Oh well...tomorrow's another day! |
