50/50

My tube on the front of my PedalForce (Road Bike).  Is considered my 'lucky tube'.
I have had that tube for 3 years now..and never a flat.
However, with the new wheels, the valve is super hard to reach when I need to inflate the tire.  Usually Dimitrios does it for me...
He is not here...
So this morning, I tried to inflate the tire..it needed it - riding on it would definitely have caused a flat.
There was not enough length in the tube for me to inflate...so when I put the pump on the valve, it deflated my entire tire.  And now I can't get it pulled far enough out to inflate.

Soooo...I'm going to have to bite the bullet and change out the tube, no big deal.
Except I don't have any tubes.  Dimitrios is king of the flat tires...and he has used all of our tubes..and I had a spare, but this morning I just could not find it.

Soooo..no dang bike riding for me today.
Wah
Did Yoga Instead.  Will buy tubes at lunch.  I find this kinda a 50/50.  As I will get in the ability to change out a tube again and I need the practice.
