Oh yeah…..did I forget to tell you? Bicycles sometimes get flats especially when you’re riding around and through large sections of broken glass which seemed to be every 100 yards along I35N……I actually took the feeder road for several miles to try to avoid all the glass on the I35 shoulder but I ended up taking a detour through ghetto-ville and visiting with all the homeless people…..after that little foray, I decided the freeway and glass were probably safer! Anyway did a quick tube replace and pressed on……. incidentally this was only my 2nd flat of the entire trip…..Thank you God!
