One day I was on the bike trail on the way home from work and was casually riding my bike as i usually do, looking at the beautiful scenic views and the mountain scenes while gliding along the smooth trail. This trail is about 5 miles long and I just take it because it starts really close to my house and ends right about the place that I work, and it works out perfectly because I don’t have a car to drive to work. Anyways as i was gliding along the trail i felt like i was gradually having to use more force and i was going a lot slower, turns out I had a flat tire. So I called my dad up and asked him to come up and help me fix my bike. A few hours passed by and he arrived with a small tool kit and an bike air pump, then just drove away.
I guess he wanted me to learn how to do it for myself so I took on the challenge, I looked in the toolbox and there was a screwdriver and a small wrench in there as well as a few screws and tape. I tried coming up with an idea as to how i would repair the small hole in my tire but i really couldn’t find out a way in my head how to. Then an idea came to me, just to tape up the wheel and hope for the best, so that’s exactly what I did. I grabbed the roll of tape and started wrapping around the hole, I was really hoping that this would work because I really had no more ideas at the time. So off i was on my way home again, and the tape surprisingly staying on (almost) the whole ride, until about the end when t fell off and i had to get off and walk a bit, I guess i’m a little more Inventive than I thought.
