So I got a flat tyre today...

Postby thestaph » Sat Nov 22, 2014 9:30 pm

...and I made three revelations when I was stopped.

1. It always pisses rain the first time I ride my bike after it's been serviced.
2. I always get a pinch flat the first ride after a service. Without fail. Say What?
3. Perth cyclists are awesome. In the five minutes or so I spent replacing the tube, no less than 10 individuals/ bunches slowed and asked if I needed a hand.

Point 3 is really the take home message. If you were one of those people on the PSP I saw in Success this morning, thanks!

I hope you also tied the old tube to the top-bar or wherever and disposed of it. We see so many left behind for wildlife to deal with and CO2 cannisters for the rest of us to ride over and crash. :?
