Thanks gals, so much, from the bottom of my heart!
As for flats, the problem for me is that I can't get them repressured up again much past 60psi and I ride at 110 psi. The tire says inflate to a minimum of 87 psi. I am thinking the weight lifting will help me get the upper body strength I need.
I think it is a good idea to practice flat changing here at home. Sounds like a fun project...NOT!![]()
