ANyway - back to today

I seem to have been ignoring you lot
didn;t mean to - I was reading but kept getting distracted by other thread

anyway - decided it was far past time for a ride
been too busy cleaning the gutters with the power washer
then cleaning up the massive mess that created

anyway - got the bike out
front tyre as flat as a flat thing

OK - fix tyre
found a hole OK
tracked it to the tube and stuck a self adhesive patch on
left it for a while - all OK
but it all back together and

loud hissing from a totally different point

went to put spare tube in and - it is Presta
I never want Presta - I know the reasons etc but I just stick to the other

anyway - why a new hole big enough to hiss in a totally different place

Oh - and the hol in the tyre was one of those were the stone/knife/whatever just poked a hole - noting inside

anyway - ride changed to somewhat later walk to the LBS and he can fix it

bike needs a looking at anyway - and ebike gubbins needs updating or whatever

A snooze has been snoozed and now I'm chomping on double fried egg on toast.
Might go for a stroll shortly.
