It's honestly getting to the point where I'm thinking of just dropping cycling. I want to make this a commuter option for my job starting in a few weeks but I can not stomach the idea of stopping to change a tire every 10-20 miles. It takes all the fun out of it, my work out comes to a hault, and I might as well just take the bus if it's going to cost $6 per tube per day.

The LBS set up my tires (gatorskin) the last time because I thought it was just me but this round only lasted 30 miles before I got my current flats.
So help me out, /n/. Is there something I'm missing or is this sport only for people who can afford it?
