• I got a flat this morning on the way in. This was not ideal as 1, I was unlocking and 2, it was 04.30 at the time. Arse biscuits! I had a tube that fitted this time, so all good. But track drop outs with full guards can do one. I spent more time looking for the bolt that holds the guard strut than I did fixing the flat.

  • Similar happened to me last Friday.

    Bike fully prepped for riding to the New Forest, the night before. Take it off the rack in the morning and the front is flat.

    Loose valve core - annoying, but glad I didn't have to change the tube. And then the zip bust on my Carnac tool bottle so I had to distribute the contents into pockets/frame bag/bar bag full of clothes.

    I bonked at about 3pm that afternoon. Had better days on the bike.
