No Pushin'

Got to practice my flat changing skills today. I used my favorite method, where the wheel isn't taken off the frame, and 80% of the tire remains on the rim. I patched the tube and put a boot inside the tire, got the bead back in place, used compressed air to re-inflate everything and was back on the road.
Still sick. I sound like Barry White now. Hey Baby. Didn't push it. Couldn't have if I'd wanted to. 33/16.7

Hazy Sun Tonight

Next to balancing, tire changing is the 2nd greatest need skill. you've mastered it well.

I love your photo tonight. Of all nights, you had to get a flat when you're not feeling good.

Lots of sleep helps....and hot tea!
