I agree with the hitching thing. I'd imagine a van or truck would be more likely to stop for you though. I'd also knock on a door and ask if I can leave my bike around the back or in their shed etc while I get home and return with transport. Always carry a lock.
Most people are pretty kind and helpful.
Saying that a couple of weeks ago I had a puncture on a busy cycling route on a sunny Sunday afternoon. There must have been close to a dozen lone cyclists passed on my side of the road while I was working on the bike. Only one shouted to see if I was ok.
