Ridley's is Specialized dealer so they're more than capable of fixing a flat on a Roubaix. I've never heard of Specialized, or any bike manufacturer, sending someone to fix a flat and sending your bike away for a flat seems like overkill.

Yah I haven't owned a bike in probably 10 years so I can't say I remember how! I do plan to get my own bike this summer and will certainly do the maintenance myself. It just wasn't in the cards financially prior to my race this weekend.
