 Day 26 post TKR;
An aborted effort due to a rear flat tire. As it turned out, a neighbor Doug Hill from down the road stopped to give me a lift 4.5 tenths of a mile from home...

Pushing my bike due to a flat tire... I was .85 of a mile from home, swish-swish-swish sound from the back tire, it was going flat. One of the only tubes I haven't treated with anti-leak compound. The reason for the lack of leak-stop compound is due to the tube not having a removable core, -typical of most Presta tubes...

I intend to drill out the valve hole in the wheel to accommodate Schraeder valve tubes.

Thanks to Doug Hill, returning from a hunting venture. Got a ride back the last 1/2 mile it was just beginning to rain. I learned that Doug's son Zach is also into brewing -He is an all-grain advocate. I gave Doug a sample of my Ginger Lager.

Afternoon PT:
Back on the stationary bike for a 30 minute spin;
6.0 miles
12.0 mph
110 HR
...then 7 minutes of leg straightening with a 5 pound weight suspended from my ankle...
