The more you do it, the easier it becomes. Our Tues pm group ride was only about 9 people this week, and the group pretty quickly split into the boys and the girls. I had a flat--no problem--I was fixing it and two other ladies were helping and visiting w/me. Another of the guys who was late for the ride went blasting by and didn't even look at us! He most certainly saw us. What has happened to chivalry? You'd think he'd have at least asked if we needed help. We'd have declined his offer, but I at least wanted the offer! I hope I see him with a flat one day soon......
