Don't check your Tyres - it's expensive

[Number14]

I noticed a big bulge in my front tyre on the recumbent this morning and a significant sized cut in the tread next to it. Cue one new front tyre. So I check the rear tyre, good tread, no significant cuts, no problems at all - except that three of the spoke holes have cracks around them.

So much for a £20 tyre, now I've got to convince Mrs14 that I need a new rim, rim tape and possibly some spokes. No pocket money for me for a while.

Forget the bike, mate, it's a write-off. You need a replacement. And quick!
