Good on yer, ton!

I don't know you, but seen you posting, and I know you've had some stuff to deal with, which makes this a proper big deal. (30 miles is pretty good, for anyone!)

Well done, you.

Result !
30 miles is probably more than most rode at MM , round a muddy feild.
Are you still I-dieting? and intending to prove the docs wrong ?

I was just about to head out in the eveing sun, and thought I'd give tubeless conversion just one last time. 50minutes later and 2 tins of stans, I'm no better off, then informed I have a shonk load to do before the morning, so yet another weekend of no riding. Thanks Schwalbe, your tyres fail!

Brickman .- try inflating them with a tube for 48 hrs at 40psi , then have another go . If you have tried this already then I have no more suggestions.

all done under my own steam, and the last 8 miles into a headwind.
losing the weight has deffo helped with the AF issues, hopefully if i can get another couple of stone off things will get even better. 8)

Hi Ton, I've read your threads, and those of your friends, about the struggle to keep cycling, the get-well group rides & the electric-bike dilemma.

That you did this today is inspiring. I'll be thinking of you when I feel like giving up.

Respect & peace.
