Got new tires for my road bike for my birthday (so I wouldn't get a flat anymore). I decided I had better be nice to my body for a few days to let it recover. Biking is the key to recovery. Only problem was my tube kept trying to escape out of the new tire. I only made it 3.75 miles before the first incident. I was able to make it home and fix it and head back out. It worked fine for 8 more miles before the same problem occurred. I was only 3 miles from home, but it only took 100 meters of tire rubbing against the fork before I got a pinch flat. Grrr. Once again, I was left stranded. Oh, and my legs are still sore. They feel like I ran a 50K.
