My weather app told me that the light rain would stop around 08:00, when in fact there was a 30 minute deluge that would’ve had me looking like a drowned rat, apart from my spanking new Galibier Tempest Pro rain jacket.
I was also wearing my brand spanking new Galibier Vu Winter jacket and Ardennes gloves. My new all time favourite between seasons jacket and gloves. Brilliant the pair of them.
Tubeless can 🤬 off. Spent ages yesterday patching both front and rear tyres, only for the rear to be nearly flat after an hour and a half. Pumped it up and continued, but then got a pinch flat in a submerged pot hole, while avoiding going under a 4×4 pick-up truck. Got some cheap road slicks and tubes coming, going to run them for the rest of the winter.
A sombre, short outdoor ride just before sunset, after the eldest of our two remaining guinea pigs (Rocket, almost 8) took a dramatic turn for the worse overnight and died late morning. First time I’ve been around when one our girls have died, who have all lived indoors with us in the lounge, can’t believe how many times I’ve been in tears since waking just after 0500 this morning. 🙁

How do you pinch flat a tubeless tyre that is..well, tubeless?
In the end decided to go walking for our weekend in the North York Moors. Weather was so good on Friday, although the ground conditions were testing. Fantastically pretty part of the country.
Mr TW and I have been working on our Darth Vader and Boba Fett impression.
