Default cracked rim

I went to the LBS today to have my rim trued and they found that the rim is
cracked by one of the spokes. The crack is about 1/8th of an inch long on
each side of the spoke. Needless to say I ordered a new rim. My question
is, is it ok to ride until my new rim comes in?


Not if it's one of those new-fangled "low spoke count" wheels.
