Flat tireā¦no big deal. Three tubes laterā¦the front wheel is changed. One tube was in the little ājust in caseā bag under the saddle. They have a tough life banging around in there. Second tube felt cheap and had also been sitting around. OK, so it took way longer than I expected. The back tube had also not been changed in a while, figured Iād try and beat Murphy at his own game and change it too. Hmm, whatās this? Something had rubbed the rubber off the tire for about a foot of wheel. I have no idea what or when. New rubber ordered. This is called āyak shaving.ā I hope Iām done for now. I still need a new helmet (another argument like politics, guns, sharpening I donāt mean to have. There are places where I ride where itās required. I have friends on all sides. Letās leave it there.) I also need new shoes. Itās all gonna wait. #murphybepraised #circumstancemanor #itsnotflatitsjusttired #cyclethis #yakshaving https://www.instagram.com/p/CTQkq0wja4m/?utm_medium=tumblr
