Buy a pump, get a free puncture
As is the case when I bought my first frame pump, I had a flat on the trails nearly immediately. Pumps pay it forward I guess.
I'd noticed the tire was flat yesterday before I went out for a ride. I pumped it back up and it lasted through about 3 hours of riding.
This morning it was flat again, which means it's a slow leak. Visual inspection fails to find physical evidence of a breach in the tire walls, so patching this is going to have involve one of those soak in a basin operations.
New pump, new puncture. I'm feeling super lazy about fixing it, so I'll just replace the tube instead of finding the puncture. That can be for another day.
