I'm sorry to report my super glue experiment didn't work.
Went out to check it and it was flat as a door nail.

Took the tube out, got a patch kit at REI and patched it up. Put one of the patches on the inside of the tire just for drill.

Loaded everything up with a good dose of talcum powder to keep things slipping 'n sliding inside the tire, pumped it up to 57.5 psi and mounted it on the bike.

I'll carry a spare tube now and the leftovers from the repair kit too. My little tool pouch tools worked great as they have tire spoons built-in and they worked great. No sore fingers from taking the tire off/on the rim.

Worst case out on the road will be pumping up the tire with my little pump. It's barely better than nothing if you get my drift.
