I don't think I've ever experienced a double flat... bad luck man...
I have. Once. Not a pothole, but an abundant spread of broken glass. And that was in the bygone days when I used tubs - and only carried one spare. I gave up tubs from that day on.

At least 'fairies' - however many - are better than broken wheels - or broken you. Take care!

Hope you're ok mate, was pootling around a bit earlier and I'm gobsmacked by the amount of new potholes around here. There's some you could almost lose me in, even after the holiday period excesses:biggrin:

Did you have two spare tubes or did you have to use a repair kit?

Glad you're ok CoG.

I detoured into the West End today to get some extra time on the bike and rather than use Blackfriars at the moment. I really don't like that junction and lights just before you get to the bridge with all the hoardings along the approach, everyone's makes a mad scramble to get away it's like the start of a Motor X race.
 
I've been avoiding Blackfriars Bridge for ages but the bollard police have started placing their bollards all over Waterloo Bridge so I need to find another bridge.
 
I've been using London Bridge on way to work.

Southwark Bridge has been so notoriously bad for ages that I no longer use it.

Looks like im back to Blackfriars on way home.

But I have found a lovely route home via Waterloo Bridge.:blush:

Bad luck Crock, at least your well, and the bike survived intact.

Get the potholes reported and see how long it takes to fill them.
