The HD replaced the tube and charged me $104 smacks. I left at 11:43am but 17 miles later on the I-95, I felt this vibration that it appeared like something was wrong with the fork bearings and I pulled over by mile marker 113 to inspect the bike and it was again the rear tire - the HD technician had pinched the new tube when installing it, creating a small air leak. HD sent someone to pick me up and tow my bike. By now it was very clear to me that I will not make it back to NY this saturday, October-15.
