Hi all,
Started commuting to work this year 35.5km each way trip here in Australia.....it's summer so it helps.......
Just had my first puncture on my way to work on my recumbent trike (ICE Vortex FS), an easy 10 mins to pull out the old tube and check for glass and fit new tube..... So big nicks in the tyre but no obvious chunks of glass.....
Australian roads have loads of broken glass on them, and after some good rain it seems to find its way to the edge of the road, or into the cycle path, along with loads of tree branches......hmmm.....
Can anyone recommend some good patches to go on the inside of the tyre to reinforce the area where my nicks are in the tyre ? My tyres are Schwalbe Kojaks in a 406 size and only 1000km old.......
Any hints of tips from you die hard commuters would be appreciated........
How are you all travelling with the snow over the UK ? It's been 30C here in Victoria over the weekend but a cool 25C today......
