As I was getting my bike ready today to ride very early tomorrow, it struck me: I'm now extremely confident that I can replace a tube that's gone flat. I know I didn't do it by myself on the triathlon, but I also know that I can do it. Plus I accidentally discharged a CO2 container, so now I know how to use those too. :-)
So I'm carrying my pump (never again will I go out without it on a race or a solo ride), two CO2 cartridges, and one spare tube. It all fits in my bike bag anyway, so I'm good to go.
This is a great feeling - to know I can take care of myself out there. But still I hope I don't have to, at least not on a race!
