Went out for a leisure ride and did not film it.  Well it turned into a longer ride than I expected. This Lectric Xp eBike you want to ride and ride and ride. Cause it is so much fun.

I ended up on the St Vain Open Space Trail that follows the St Vrain River.  Fantastic ride. 

The problem is right in the middle it is closed so there is a detour off the path and on to the street in a bad area that tends to have a lot of junk on the street.

Well I got a flat from a push pin tack.  The back tire went flat really quickly.  

Luckily I was able to take an Uber that saved me.  The full story is in the video above.

But Now I have a plan in place for just in case. 

I suggest the first thing you do with any bike is slime both tires.

Slime Tube Repair Sealant, 16 oz. https://amzn.to/2RUgTxz  I put 8oz in each tire.

Tire Inflator Sealer

I carry a can of this to seal and inflate.  Would much rather have an easy fix without removing the tire to get home to then replace the tube.

Tuffy Lines

Also I plan to use Tuffy liners.  These are great I have used them before and never got a flat.
