I can give a lift from North Notts/Mansfield way if that helps anyone? Need to get back reasonable time though, so wouldn't be able to hang around after the ride

Yeah like i'd do any training!! Be a steady ride out mate. Legs are back to normal after loads of pushing last week. Just need to give the bike a quick clean and i'll be good to go.

I'm sorry to say i'm out. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ Plasterer made a great job of the chimney breast and walls but on taking the radiator off popped pipes in the cellar. Will be cleaning all that up this weekend. Nice crappy black water all over. Lucky it didnt splash the bikes or the paint would of been peeling off.

Think i'll be charging him for plastering the room now!! Tool!!

If anyone has a new (decent) tube spare that they could sell me tomorrow? I have one spare currently but its a Halfords own brand and I'm not too confident in how it'd perform (used my decent spare tube last Sat and I always carry two spares).

Shraeder or Presta- I can swap tubes round if I get a puncture.

FIRST puncture in a year. First. FFS! I've ridden mainly the Peaks on 35psi. Laughed at others (in a good natured way)...

Then on the Dragons back, on the first smooth bit ffs. the tube just gave up in multiple places on the inside. ๐Ÿ˜†

Assuming I do actually drag myself out of bed in time I'll be there & usually have at least 2, usually more spare tubes, so shouldn't worry too much. That's not an invite to ride not carrying anything yourself though...Will...
