Leverett loop clockwise, except I didn't finish, got a flat rear tire right at the town line on Bull Hill Road. Must be something in the rear tire causing a problem, thought I checked it pretty good when it got a flat a little bit ago, but I guess not. Time for new tires.
And as far as the post-flat experience, humanity got an 80% approval rating:
-- First house, when I asked to borrow the phone to call my wife, the old guy just said No.
-- Second house, the woman said sure, come right in. Plus she was baking cookies, offered me one. Husband, lying on the couch watching the Masters, was friendly too.
-- Back outside waiting for Gail, a guy in a pick-up stopped, asked if I needed a ride someplace.
-- And then a guy riding a fat bike came by, offered to help fix the flat, but then I said my new tube hadn't made it into my saddle bag...
4 out of 5 is pretty good.
About 50, WSW 10 mph.
