I am currently on the side of 795 changing the second flat tire for the day. The first was the front @ 11am. Now the rear at 5pm.
THANK GOD ITS FRIDAY
here are some pics. My wife brought me a second front wheel set-up for the first blow out. I had a tube for the second one.
I was unable get the old avatars reimported. Regretfully, you will have to upload your avatar again. Please report any issues here,.

Re: Dagnamit!!!!!!!!!!
Word of advice-
No matter how frustrated, angry or tired you are. Do not lay down and look at the clouds and smoke a cigar while changing your inner tube on the side of the road. Someone will call and say you crashed and died and every police officer, fireman and rescue team will "stop" by and say hello. Then you will need to show all of them your license, registration and insurance information which really slows down the whole tube changing process a lot.
I learned my lesson. Smoke a cigar while standing to say them a lot of hassle. I now am tired, frustrated and feel really bad about causing a commotion.
Now back to changing my tube.

Re: Dagnamit!!!!!!!!!!
No ride home but they didn't give me a set of brackets either. At first I was a little irritated then I realized why the were all there and I felt bad for wasting their time. I think I will add a folding chair to my tool kit so the know I am ok and not belly up.

You should see how fast they come when you lay the bike on its side because you don't have a stand!
