Tea?

[Mo1959]

Not sure if just a coincidence but i suspect a prank played by a work colleague. I normally run tyres on both my bikes at 100-105psi but yesterday last minute before work i noticed that both my tyres were a little flat - I say a little but really there was quite a bit of deviation. Pressure gauge told me that i was running at least 60-65psi - So i had infact lost around half my tyre pressure. Now I hadnt checked the tyre pressure since my failed attempt at going to Shoreham with the Fridays but pressure should of been good. Didnt really suspect a p+ so pumped both tyres up and went to work.

This morning I decided to take the Triban out as rain was forecast. I did a quick pressure check on both tyres by giving them a squeeze and again they were both a little flat. I had to head to work so i didnt bother pumping up my tyres as there is a CC and Evanscycles within a mile where i work so i popped into CC on the way and pumped my tyres up.

Got the pump attached and the pressure gauge said 4 bar - I also suspected a p+ but i checked the pressure of my tyres throughout the day while at work just to make sure it was fine and it was perfect.

Now what are the chances that both bikes have lost almost half their pressure? I always double check that the presta valve is screwed shut before replacing the cap on the end of it.

It just seems too much of a coincidence.

At last the sun has arrived in Kent! Good afternoon Tea people! Here's a slice of the cake I made yesterday (not much left now!).

Indeed I did! Lovely northerly breeze to chill the bones for the first 35/40 miles, then just chilly. The sun did make an appearance though. For the final half mile and on the grass by the beer tent!

At least you got the chance to keep yourself warm, as opposed to being too warm.
One or Two?
