| What Happens If I Get A Flat? |
I guess during Ironman if I get a flat I could hope that some kind individual will pull over and help me change my tire...but I am not counting on it (what do you think)?
This evening I had my first lesson in changing not only my tube but my actual tire on my bike wheel. It looked difficult but I muddled thru it just fine with the help of my better half.
The old saying "patience is a virtue" comes in very handy when changing a tire and of course you must not be afraid to get dirty and break a nail.
While I am feeling pretty good about the fact that I managed to change my first tire I am not 100% convinced of my tire changing abilities while in a race.
So, to quote another saying - "practice makes perfect" - guess what I'll be doing every weekend.

Maria, I'm impressed and would love to learn how to change my bike tire. You will definitely get faster and faster if you do it every weekend!
