Status: First Tire Mounted. This was very difficult as I started out doing it the hard way. First attempt was to mount the first tire edge then shove the tube inside and fold in the second edge. Attempt failed several times. I could never get the tire properly located in the tube while flat. The final attempt was to pre-inflate the tube in the tire then install. This worked much better. I will do this on the next tire but for now this was very exhausting. I resisted doing this to begin with as I knew that once inflated I would never get the air out again. So if it had failed I would have been stuck.
