Damn puncture on the way home (not a surprise as I'm running on the threads of nylon having skidded all the rubber of my tyres) but once I'd fixed it, and put everything back together, I heard it hissing again. Turns out it was a snake bite flat, and I'd only repaired one hole! Fucking thing. Then when I was tightening the track bolts again, putting the wheel back on "CRACK" the inner nut snapped. Hardly any torque. Fucking Charge wheel set crap. Then it went flat again half way home. I ended up with some sort of medium speed puncture that enabled me to make a mile or two at a time, at high speed, with weight off the back, until I needed to pump again.
Not coming.
