Flat Tire Blues ....

Actually it's not quite that bad. The TPS triggered last night when I started my drive home. I keep my car in the garage so I figured it was because this was the first cold day we have had, and the tire pressure was low to begin with.

I stopped to top-off the air pressure, which turned out not to be low until I came to the right front tire. Luckily the nail was still in the tread and facing me as I went to add air pressure. I pumped the tire up and was able to finish driving the short distance home. I pulled the tire this morning and I am taking it to get fixed.

It's nice when things work the way they are supposed to.

Hopefully they can patch it. A nail destroyed one of my Pontenzas last year. I bought a used replacement tire from someone on the forums for $100 including shipping.
