Definitely depends on the strength of the rim, your riding style, weight, etc. I wouldn't ride on it, but I have before without realizing it until the end of the ride and I was fine, plus the rim was still true and I am hard on my gear, but also don't use the lightest weight racing parts. A shop nearby should be able to pop one it pretty quick as long as its not a Mavic aluminum or other specialty type spoke.
