My weekend biking adventure

Iwent on my first training ride for Tucson this weekend. I went through three tire tubes (casualties from my last attempt) trying to get a good tire on the front. When I set out I thought I was successful. But, I was having to peddle, peddle, peddle to even move, going downhill.. It turns out I had a slow leak in my front tire. So, I rode the equivalent of 30 miles… Still, it was good to be out on the bike.

I went out again this morning — but on my mountain bike — even that felt much smoother than riding on my flat ….
