At the recommendation of cavalaxis, I put Slime tube sealant in my bike tires. I hope this stuff works!

I also put on the bike odometer that I got in a gift exchange over Christmas. It's probably pretty cheap, but I've already turned the wheels .006 miles in the yard. It'll be interesting at least, to know how far I'm biking when I bike. I like that kind of thing.

My hands were all dirty when I finished with the above two operations. I felt proud of myself. Anything that involves doing something new to a machine makes me feel proud. :D

Hooray for Slime!

Indeed. They took a tiny thorn out of my tire when I got the tube changed, and I don't want to shell out the $15 every month. :P

Here's hoping it works for me!

Y'know, if it really does what it says it does, and Cool Tools has a pretty good rep, then you're set.

Did you see the piece on the museum heist where the thieves called the guards hours before the break in, saying they were the alarm company and that there were malfunctions in the system, please ignore any alarms you hear going off?

I love my little bike computer. I like the part where it tells me how fast (or slow) I am going. :)

Totally. It confirmed for me that it is about half a mile to work, and that even when I'm going really slow, I'm going 5 to 7 miles an hour. Very much fun.
