The cut is in the tire, not the tube? I know people who have ridden many miles on booted tires. You can cut up old inner tubes and use a piece for a boot. Or you can buy one at the LBS. Or you can use a dollar bill, which I've done as an emergency boot during a ride. Whatever you use, put it between the inner tube and the inside of the tire, covering the hole.
