I wouldn't have had any idea what to do! Glad you got home okay.

I went 46 miles today with a group. I can keep up with them for part of the ride, and eventually I fall behind, but they waited for me. I ran over a big metal construction staple- it was the first flat I've experienced while I was actually still riding. Every other time, the flat showed up at the end of ride or the next morning. I had help on changing the tire- I could have done it, but it would have taken me longer.

Still perfect riding weather out here in the desert, but it's going to rain again tomorrow.
