Bike to work day, and this morning I headed out on my bike to ride to work. ~17 miles each way, I wasn't sure how my knee would do but I felt good heading down the road. I was several miles from home when all of a sudden I heard a pop and a loud hissing noise.
Flat.
I stopped and by the time I did the rear tire was completely flat. I looked for a cause, didn't see anything and walked the bike down to a place I could get off the road to work on it. Luckily I had my tools and a spare tube. Swapping tubes actually went pretty easily and then I was on my way!

The rest of the ride went fine. I took the new Yelm Highway route that they've been working on for a long time. They just finished paving and were doing some finishing work, so a couple sections were blocked off with cones, but it's mostly done. Nice bike lanes the whole way.
I felt pretty tired on the ride home, but my knee seems to be holding up so far. Hopefully it continues to hold up!
