Me, ( Whooray), Gary, (Domino 1), Greg, (Nogrey)



Rode out of Nampa, Idaho out to Map Rock Rd and along the Snake River





We stopped at Dans Ferry Crossing and put on some of the good gas 87 octane non ethonal.
Really had a great afternoon ride with good friends on beautiful Valkyries.

Well durnit! That settles it!

Don't care if it's raining, I'm going to ride in to work tomorrow. Can't stand leaving my gurl in the shop. It may be wet but at least it'll be warm enough.

Tire was low this morning... Probably should have read it as a sign. I aired her up and got to work with no problems.

About noon a co-worker informs me that my tire is looking a little low. I go out and check, pressing the Schrader valve releases no air. Dead-flat. tickedoff

Waiting for the tow truck now.

Before you inform me that I could probably use some sort of fix-a-flat, I know. The fact of the matter is that the tire is coming off and I'm replacing it so why make a mess inside the tire that I'm going to have to clean up shortly.  uglystupid2

I pay for a really nice AAA service... I'll let them chaufer me home instead. Smiley

Flats are nothing to mess with glad you're OK. I had a rear blow out southbound I-5 at the Snohomish river bridge on my Shadow Ace. I was VERY lucky I didn't go down. Take a flat in a parking lot anytime over that!

I carry a $10 electric air pump with me all the time ridding, and also now have bought a Stop N' Go tire repair kit last Christmas. I've used it on my car late spring, and no repeat problem. Nice how-to to show you how to fix it.
