I know we are a bit a niche market here. But it would be nice if LBSs carry a few 650 stuff for us. I'd let you borrow mine, but I am in MD. Don't think that would help.

oops! Well it will be a good reminder for next time... I have a couple 650s but in CA so I don't think I help, either... Is there a tri club in the area you could send a favor request out to?

Can you fix the tire? maybe duct tape ;-)

awesome! It would be sad to be out of a race for something like that. Now just make sure mr. d-m ordered an extra as well! :)

Or maybe a few extra since they are not locally available ;-)

yeah, you're a mom... you should know no playing in glass!
I'm working on the "no playing with superglue" one myself. Although if you need to fix that tire... I might be able to glue it to the ceiling if that would help ;)

I was actually serious about the duct tape.
I have taken off the tire and duct taped the inside and duct taped the tub and was able to get home several miles away.

I've done this with dollar bills, gel wrappers, and business cards, too.

cool. as the parent of a diva, i never have money, but i have duct tape -and i'm not afraid to use it - except prior to a race - i'll pack some for the race though and future rides at the lake. and now i have a use for the 495 extra business cards i have from my last position - my mom got the other 5.

I trashed my last 650c tire today, riding at the park. I need a new one before Saturday (my A race on Sunday) and the LBS went shopping to find one and they're all 'back order'.
Color me stupid for not having a spare.
