I got to my destination, took care of my goal there and then turned to the tire that I worked on in the open. I got the tube out of the studded tire, patched it, put the tire back on and continued with my tasks for the day. For all I know that tube may still be functioning on the bike without any repatching. State of mind often matters more than actual circumstances
