I do my own stunts
I had two spokes snap on opposite sides of my rear wheel on the commute home today. The wheel still seems to be true, rest of spokes are all a similar tension, and the brake pads are fairly worn so a bit to play with
Took it to Halfords this evening in the vague hope they would have a wheel off the shelf but no luck.
What is the chance of it lasting my commute (entirely on road/tarmac path) tomorrow (11 miles each way) then a trip to the local LBS for a replacement, if I am judicious at avoiding any potholes and the like? The wheel has done 8k miles so doesn't owe me anything if it makes it unrepairable.
Thanks for your advice!
