How long does it take you to fix a flat?

Five miles??? Walk your bike in cycling shoes???

Nope. I wouldn't have to think about that one for half a second

I remembered the flat I just described wasn't my last one after all, it was just the last one I fixed on the road. The last one was a quarter mile or less from my car, and that distance I did walk.

I bought a wilderness whistle for emergencies. My husband calls it the "come change my flat whistle." Honestly, I begged him to teach me, but he's too impatient.

Teach yourself then!

It will be an hour well invested. There is an excellent video on youtube.

I'm so slow I would never even want to time it.

Even slower if I'm still shaking from the BLAM! of an exploding tube, and the surprise that I actually stopped and unclipped without crashing or falling over in the street.
