Default Help! Urgent question!

So, I was riding home from work and I got a flat tire (front tire) right as I got home. Seems to be a slowish, but steady deflation. How should I position my bike to avoid having it fall over during the night? Is this a risk? Anyone have experience with this?

Place it on the kickstand. Nothing will happen.

Haven't had that problem, but if you feel as the bike might fall over, put a block under flat tire to raise it up.

Or a piece of 2x4 under the kickstand to stand it up a little straighter. I wouldn't worry about it unless it really leaves over on the stand with the tires full.

If the tire is flat, it should not lean over as much.

Sorry but this is funny to me!

Your bike shouldn't go anywhere, you will be fine.
