Day 54

Hello world!Today was a sad day... I made it 53 days, but then down went Frazier (kinda).My group started the day cruisin along just doin our thing and at mile 9-10, my back wheel did something funky. Pop goes the weasel and ya girl got her first official flat of the ride. My tubeless tires failed me for the first time.Normally when I get a flat, I spin my tire and the sealant inside the tire will self repair the flat. This time that didn’t happen and turns out it was because I had no sealant left in the tire!I sagged for the first time today (honestly surprised it’s taken me this long), but was able to make it to a bike shop and they fixed my tire in minutes!We’re all good to go now... I think.The rest of the team faced a tough headwinds and a long 97 mile day, so I feel badly that I wasn’t fighting it with them. But hey, sometimes ya just need to be a cheerleader on the sidelines and motivate everyone, so that’s what I tried to do.We’ve got 76 miles today and will be passing a lot of Idaho potato farms! Good stuff.Happy trails.Marge
