Uh, I had a simple flat fix turn complicated when I replaced the front wheel in the fork, missing the gap between the pads in the caliper by a smidge and shearing the pad's braking material off the backer plate. That's not a roadside repair unless you carry a replacement pair in your bag.
Short answer was to snag a rear pad out of the caliper to replace the now toothless front pad and put the padless plate into the rear caliper and riding home gingerly.
