27 Ride: Lower Waterman, south of
strawberry creek (one gate open, one gate closed), Hello to Tony Wiley
(I heard a
squeeking sound from the front wheel, thought it was a speedo cable. Upon
arriving home discovered a flat tire, the sound was the tire rubbing on the rim.
I didn't even know that the tire was flat. The stiff side walls of the
Dunlop D908 allowed me to ride home ~10 miles unknowing that I had a flat. Seems
that my tire pressure gauge was broken. Bought a new gauge.)
28 Fix flat, new Accu-Gauge is nice.|
