Front tyre puncture

My 4th flat tire since starting this hobby in  2010. First time with a front puncture,  while taking the left corner at the junction of Jalan Pekeliling (near TNB office) to Bukit Koman (Jalan Tg. Abdul Samad). Nasty fall resulting in the (L) knee and (L) shoulder superficial abrasion.
I didn't bring a spare inner tube and mini pump, so I called my son to fetch me home.
This was what happened to my Sram Red brake levers - not broken, scratch only.... and my knee below...
ouch!... knee wounds

I replace the inner tube - Innova 700x19/23C with Presta valve size 48mm, just nice for my 38mm wheels
