Cody's totally tubular to the awesome max blog: Mid Mouuntain Trail (30 mile ride)

Went up to Park City and rode on the the mid mountain trail. I thought it was going to be around 18 miles long, but as we were heading up they said we were starting further back and it was going to be around 30 miles..

After only 2 miles I had some tire trouble. It went something like this:

- tire is low, so I stop to pump it up
-pump isn't pumping air in so I think tire nozzle is messed up.
-put on spare tube
- that doesn't pump up, so I realize it is my pump.
- I get Kyle's pump and pump up tire.
- pin on nozzle break right when we finish pumping it up. (It takes a long time to pump up a tire with a little 12 inch hand pump)
- put on old tire thinking it was just low and my broken pump made all the air come out.
-after that is on and done we hear the air coming out of the tire from where the was a hole.
-take off tire again and patch it.
-pump that tire up again and when we are done that nozzle break off.
- so now I have no extra tubes, but luckily another rider comes by and he has an extra tube.
-Put in that tube and now we are ready to ride again.

......it only took about an hour and a half.
