I know that feeling.. I have 3 bikes all with flat tires.. My fourth bike had good tires and my daughter took it to ride with her boys..

My bike has been sitting in the shed for about the last 5 years at least, really should get out on it, much better than trying to run..

The tubes may be dry rotted as well. That happened to my one bike. Put some weight on it after I aired it up and it popped..

When I was a kid I use to be the go to guy to fix your flat, just about every kid used to come to me. I was too stupid to charge any of them...lol
