Some night...I'm with Kate on the flat practice. Some night while watching T.V. Change one of your tubes 5 times and you'll be a pro. Watch a couple you tube videos, get a couple tire levers and a CO2 inflator (I use a red Zepplin) and some threaded CO2 cartridges.Ransickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14084824367872613487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3660670497459217612.post-22854172166978368292013-10-08T20:10:09.379-05:002013-10-08T20:10:09.379-05:00Hey, I gave up soda this week too.

Not as terrible as I anticipated, but not fun.<br /><br />Good for you getting back at it...I think that's the hardest part is to start again when you've had a layoff. Hope you're able to find some new healthy options that work for you. I've had a terrible time with that...pretty sure my family may run away if I put broccoli on the table again...keep making the same thing over and over again. Sigh.<br /><br />Good luck at Ride the Rivers! A big part of finishing is just staying determined to finish. And doing some flat changing practice might do a lot towards helping you not stress so much about getting one (I say that, but it took me about 2 years of biking a lot before I learned how to do it).Kate Geisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854561265520868538noreply@blogger.com
