Flatting out on the trainer

How much have I been riding the damn trainer? Enough to get a flat. First time I've ever had this happen. I've pretty much worn out my dedicated trainer tire, a beat up road tire. Got a flat about 45 minutes in and handled it just like I would on the road. Hopped off grabbed a tube and changed that sucker out quick. I was back on the trainer in five minutes. The tire held for the rest of the ride but I scrapped that one and put on a new worn out road tire after I finished up. Let's hope it holds or it warms up so I can get outside.

Summary:

Bike: 80 minutes

Max HR: 176 (2x2 minute pick ups to get HR to 170, return to 140 and repeat)

Avg HR: 144
