When I first started out riding more than around the neighborhood on my Schwinn Varsity, I decided I should be ready and bought a frame mount pump. Off I went secure in my knowledge I could handle a flat. Got about 15 miles from home and Ssssssssssss…. got my trusty pump and the air leaked as fast as I could pump it in. Damn! This is pre-mobile phones. I was looking at a long walk back. An experienced cyclist asked if everything was OK and I replied No. He stopped and taught me what tools I would need for future rides and showed me how to patch my tire. I return the favor whenever I can.
