It's wet and I have a flat tire...

So today started off with a tour of Sidney Kimmel comprehensive cancer center. Which I missed the first half of because I missed the Johns Hopkins bus there... but none the less still made it.

We then went back to the main campus for some lunch and met up for a short ride. I went with the group that went to Fort McHenry . It was pretty cool and fun to go down into the inner harbor.

Right when we got back the skies opened and all hell broke loose! Thunder, lightening, monster rain! and there was still some riders out in it.

We then had a meeting from inside a building as it poured outside. We went over basically what is going on each day this summer. Considering each day has pretty much the same routine, just different scenery it wasn't too difficult.

Then we had a couple hours to go relax. So I headed the 2.6 miles back to my hotel and on my ride popped a tire on a manhole cover. Alright not to bad, but then proceeded to break the valve off the next tube and break my hand pump! So I'm down too tubes and a hand pump all in 5 mins. I tried to put another tube in but the pump just wouldn't work.

So then I walked about 1.5 miles back to the hotel, while it RAINED! and this is where I remain now.... Luckily I had a little company from Chelsie on the phone while I walked back, so it didn't seem all that bad.

Hopefully this is a sign that all the bad bike problems are gonna happen before we leave on sunday! I'll cross my fingers ;) I'm well on my way to beating the record of 31 tubes over the course of the summer!

That's all for now.
