I went out to BBD. Driver clipped me as she was exited Shoppes at New Tampa. She didn't stop and didn't see me. I moved some but the mirror clipped my handlebars. I stayed upright but was angry. I turned around and saw she was waving "sorry." Ugh. As she passed, I noted her license plate, 907 4JE. Silver hatchback, maybe a Hyundai?
Stopped at Mansfield. 
Headwind on Hueland Pond.

Reverse loop. Felt so good to be on my road bike. It is so quiet and smooth. Bike computer no longer working I adjusted the sensor but I think the wires may have snapped.

I took the old bike computer off and moved my bell up to the handlebars. 
It was cold but the sun felt good. Riding this bike seems effortless since the gears are new and the shifting is indexed. 
I turned onto MPB and noticed the tire felt soft. I stopped and checked and it was soft. I don't remember riding over anything that would have given me a flat. I tried to pump it up but it only got worse. I noticed the valve stem was crooked even before I tried to pump it up. One guy on a bike stopped but I said I was OK. 
I finally took the wheel off and changed the tube. Getting the tire off is always a struggle. I didn't see any nicks of holes. I pulled out a new tube and put it on. Putting it on was easier than in the past. Pumping it up was not easy. I do not like my pump as I am never sure if I have it seated properly. I had to stop once to inflate some more.
My tire was still a little soft so I rode carefully home. I pumped it up when I got him with my floor pump.
