Wanted to work in some climbing into a Grn Mtn turn yesterday to help get back in shape, up tower road from Rooney road, (seriously boring, but a good, long climb), down Hayden and then back up on Rooney valley, then the plan was to go around on the summit loop and down box to the parking lot.
Just make the turn on summit when I flatted, upon further inspection, I had ripped a 1 inch out of the rear tire, no need to sacrifice another tube, walked back to the car, the walk of shame.
Glad I got the climbs in, only missed out on the downhill roll back to the car.
Must have had a dozen riders offer to help, tubes etc.
That is what get for trying to get just a couple more rides out of too old tire.
