    It wouldn't be a problem, coz you would be a good boy Scout & have a tyre Pando or puncture repair kit handy in your tankbag!!!

    Easy, you're lazy, so you can't be bothered using the co2 canisters you have handy (after all, if they aren't enough, you're knackered). You keep riding it while its going down (hopefully it takes a while, otherwise you ride faster) and get to the nearest town with a garage.

    Then ya whips out your repair kit, finds the puncture, patches it, and uses the station's free air to fill the tyre back up.
