What a cluster this morning.

So, I go to put air in the tires this morning on my commuter, which lives out in the garage. Flat rear tire. Maybe, I can pump it up, get to work okay, and pump it up again before my ride home.
Pump, pump, pump, hissssssss
Air was coming out nearly as fast as I was putting it in.
Back inside. "Hon....can I ride the Big Buzz?"
Sure. Good to have an abundance of bikes and to be approximately the same size as DH.
So, I unpack my pannier, re-pack in another pannier, b/c my Arkel doesn't "work" on his rack without major adjustments to the hooks - which I don't want to do. Pump up the tires. Throw the grocery pannier on the other side of the bike (I need to hit the grocery store at lunch - plus I was bringing in pretzels for the office), put on DH's shoes (about 1.5 size too big for me ), and off I go.
Whap. Whap, Whap.
The Big Buzz is a "wicked cool" bike - but it doesn't have very long chain stays and my heels keep kicking the bags - especially the grocery bag - especially with DH's big water-ski shoes.
So it was a delicate, slow cadence, heel-up sort of pedaling style in this morning. Sigh.
