[KSH]

So... did he take notes on how to do it?

I went to the bike maintence class and practiced changing a tire... like 6 months ago... I can't even remember HOW to do it anymore!

Good job on changing that flat though! Finally, a WOMAN changing a flat tire!

But, let him know that he still has to change the flats on the cars! HA

Finally, a WOMAN changing a flat tire!

Ha!!!! My fingers are sore - I've done SIX tires this week. None out on the road though. All in the comfort of my garage. I even did two of them in my jammies.

I've been lucky. I haven't had a flat in about a year. That experience was a disaster! I was in an iffy part of town - I had picked up Thom's new glasses at the eye doctor. It was getting dark. I hurried the change and ruined the tube. I couldn't get the CO2 to work on the second tube. I called a friend to pick me up. She got lost. My bike wouldn't fit in her car -a Z3. We sat in a bar and chatted until Thom could get me. Well it was nice to talk over drinks, I hope all this practice pays off next time I have to do for it real.

Gee Veronica- Should have called me and my Z3! I would have come to the rescue- I have a bike rack! That's what Bike Goddesses are for- taking care their sisters!

(I think you know that, yes?!)

[Veronica]

Now I have LOTS of numbers of folks to call in my cell phone. It was really nice to sit and talk with my friend though. But I could probably walk home before a lot of them could come to my rescue.
