Actually, I carry three plus a patch kit. While you are correct that the tires and tubes you'll use on your Bleriot are far less fragile than those on a typical "road bike," remember too that nobody on a ride with you is going to have a tube your size, and there are some tube failures -- like a valve problem -- that can't be fixed with patching. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
