Tea?

Well my bimble lasted a whole 2 miles before the P fairy visited me again. I have slime in my tyres so i would have thought it would have sealed anything.

I also have Co2 canisters. However i couldn''t get it wo work. Maybe next time i will read the instructions first.

Why bother reading the instructions? And unless you fixed the hole, you'd have another leak.

Still, the walk(home) will have done you good.

The slime should seal it though if it's just a small hole so might have stayed up if blown up?

I've got Marathon Greenguard tyres fitted,
I know they roll heavy but an odd drawing pin has managed their way through.
I'd rather have some reasonable p******e protection than lighter tyres.
CO2 is a great thing...once I learnt to carry a piece of cloth with me (mines never came with a neoprene pouch)
I carry two tubes but usually just turn back after I replace one..

Time to head out I think, something slow and easy...

I think the problem was that it punctured. Went flat. But if i had known how to use the Co2, i could have used it, spun the wheel, and it would have sealed the puncture andmit would have been OK.

Read instructions from now on.

Flies are getting bad now. I was out early for my walk but they were already buzzing round my head. Pesky feckers!

Not these horse flies that seem to be getting mentioned?

 

[172traindriver]

Violent..
but they haven't been the worst this summer

flippin' clegs (horseflies)..
If still, I only have to stop when out and one is on me..

I know I moan about them but I'm plagued with them

Are they particularly bad around your location then @Bobby Mhor?

 

[172traindriver]

Hate them too. They are dirty. I got a badly infected bite years ago from one of them. Ended up with an abscess.

That sounds really unpleasant

 

[172traindriver]

There was a horsefly that kept hitting the windpw the other day. I swear it was trying to smash it's way through the window to get me. . Bloody thing was enormous.

Should have nipped to the other side of the glass with the fly spray and given it the full blast

 

[172traindriver]

You'll be going for early morning walks before long.

In my dreams

 

[172traindriver]

Its okay, they already know my route and ambush me...
I don't even know where I'm going when I leave most days

They are probably hanging about waiting for you to leave the house so they can follow you and attack you

Hell no. It was scary

Hell no. It was scary

You could have finished it off in one go

Rampant this year, NHS Highland has issued warnings, some eejit entomologist says they are misunderstood wee creatures although not as bad in the urban environment but jeez, I got buzzed at I slogged up a hill today, midges I can even outrun but not these boggers

They are probably hanging about waiting for you to leave the house so they can follow you and attack you

I'm just a tasty big sod

I bet you are too chicken s***t to do it.
