Tire went flat last week, tubeless patch didn't hold well so I tried a plug, tonight with about 15 other riders it went flat again. Walk of shame back to my car and cleaned out the sealant at home, patched again, tube installed for tomorrow.

I got stung by a bee 5 min in and had to ride home to get the stinger out of my ear. Turns out I’m not allergic so that’s good?
6 weeks ago was at mile 32 out of 40. Landscaping truck made a left in front of me and stopped the ride early. Broke my jaw, some ribs, my pelvis in 2 locations, and got one nasty concussion. 30 something stitches later to my face pretty happy about being alive, but yeah my ride was cut short.
lol i took my bike in the back of my truck about 40 min away to try some new trail. literally about 100 feet down it rear tire and tube just got sliced by something. like easy 1/4″ or more slice and nearly instantly flat. pushed bike back to my truck, locked it in the bed, then hiked a bit.
went back and fixed it with a better but older tire and new tube. next weekend went back and carefully rode – got about 1/2 mile in before the front tire went flat due to a puncture. decided to give up biking there lol.
I didn’t drink much water past Friday night, woke up saturday morning & still didn’t drink water, rode to club ride & was very dizzy just 10 km in, caught a bus home, spent a few hours trying to figure out what was wrong with me, before having soup & fully recovering within minutes.
