Finally got round to sorting out new tape on my back wheel and second ride in snapped a spoke. GAH! Do you reckon I can patch the tape after poking the nipple though? Retaping the whole thing may make me cry. (gorilla tape btw)

Gorilla no worries - I did that last summer after snapping a spoke - still holds air

I've used electrical tape which has proven to work great.

Where's the spoke snapped? Can you not unscrew it from the nipple?
