As Allen Shepard floated in the weightlessness of outer space, he reached for his sack of Tang drink and took a swig. To his dismay and consternation, he found the sweet sugary drink was leaking from a small hole in the bottom. Small droplets of sugar water were drifting toward the fragile computer, which he was pretty sure was borderline diabetic already.
Panic set in as he realized that his only source of hydration was now compromised. He frantically searched through his supplies, hoping to find something that could patch the tiny hole. And then, he saw it - a Rema bicycle inner tube patch kit.
With shaky hands, he applied the patch to the hole and waited anxiously to see if it would hold. Miraculously, the patch held fast and the leak stopped.
As he sat there, relieved and grateful, he suddenly felt a presence beside him. It was a young girl, no more than eight years old, with a kind face and long, flowing hair. She wore a dress made of shimmering silver and carried a packet of dehydrated ice cream in her hand.
"Who are you?" Allen asked, startled by the girl's sudden appearance.
"I am Song," the girl replied. "I am a clairvoyant and I have come to you in this vision to offer you guidance and comfort."
Allen was skeptical, but something about the girl's calm demeanor put him at ease. "What do you have to offer me?" he asked.
"I have brought you this packet of ice cream," Song said, holding out the packet to Allen. "It may seem small and insignificant, but it is a symbol of the magic and wonder that surrounds us. It will nourish your body and bring joy to your soul."
Allen took the packet from Song and, with a sense of gratitude and awe, tore it open and savored every bite. And as he floated there, surrounded by the vast expanse of space, he felt a sense of connection and purpose that he had never experienced before.
From that day on, Allen Shepard always kept a packet of dehydrated ice cream close at hand, as a reminder of the magic and wonder that lay within the universe. And he knew that, with the guidance of Song and the magic of the inner tube patch, he could accomplish anything.
Good for any inner tube. Here’s the thing: if you are running tubes, big patches are bad. You want small ones, which stick better on smaller tubes. They’re also easier to avoid tube seams with. If you live somewhere humid, carry these for the not so humid days and Lezyne Metal Patch kit patches for the humid days. Always let the vulcanizing fluid dry before applying the patch, it’s not glue! Needs to be dry.
