Three pins




Worked from home, hence the lack of a post.

I just spent an hour changing my flat, and that includes practice with the other bike. Because the last time I had to, I spent 45 minutes changing the flat tire on my Mojo.











What I discovered today for the third time: changing the tire on a Shimano Shadow derailleur-equipped bike is a real bitch.

I doubt I've ever bonked on a ride before, but bonking when changing a flat tire?

3 times and counting.

I am physically inept. Or my eyes are gone. Or I no longer have the hand-eye coordination of a man in his 20s.

Pick one. I'll go with 1. It's less humiliating. But it's actually all of these.
