Bad Day..two tubes, no ride

[Mr. Bloom]

Well, Silver's out riding.

I was going to take SilverSon's Pilot for a 40 miler w/Silver. But, the rear tire was flat. I replaced the tube and just as I pumped the new one to 100psi, it blew (so hard that it took paint off Silver's car bumper that I had it propped against).

Despite being careful, I suspect that I had the tube pinched.:mad:

No more tubes, no ride today:( :(

You sound like Meg, Queen of Flats. Find the hole. If it's a pinch it will probably look a lot like a little slash. If it's a hole, something is causing it.

BIG slash...my fault:(

Mr. Silver, my husband did the same thing twice in one day- he pinched the 2 brand new tubes near the valve and they blew when they got pumped up to pressure. Now he's learned.
