make sure you eat a lot of beans so u can have enough gas to blow up your spare tube.

@yngvai777 I'm gonna go ahead and suppose that the pump is a given...

what kind of a fucking bike do u have to ride to get poped tires snapped chains loose crank arms and all the bolts on ur bike? Whats next a bottom bracket lock ring and t torque wrench?

[j4ck50n93]

Or, you buy a set of slime inner tubes, and a liner in the back tire. A lot easier then stopping, taking off the tire, innertube, applying a patch, etc, etc. Although I still carry tire levers and patches just in case...
