All good
Two punctures in one day, and then to have a repair kit handy to find the valve stem is stuffed, thats gotta suck

Who would have thought? Two bikes, two rear tyres, and two nails! And then a f.......d valve

Huge thanks guys, a great team effort

Now all I have to do is rescue the poor old Bonnie

Getting onto it now

Having my glasses off didn't help. Thought the forks were'nt out that far and had them spaced either side of the tyre. Oh well. He's a nice chap and I offered to pay for a new tube.

Oh well, at least it was just a tube and not something else

I will be going

after a lil run over vinegar hill with a couple others.

I was thinking of shooting up north (rain and wind dependant) to try and hook up with the crew somewhere for shits and giggles if anyone is keen for a ride. Might text Meanie tomorrow morning to see if it's worth it.

Had thought of doing that too...but there's bikes at Manfield. Might see what the day brings. What time are you thinking of heading off?

C'mon man, riding ya bike out to feilding is hardly a ride mate!
I was thinking maybe I could get to and leave Palmy by 10am, no need to be too hardcore about it but i'm giving you a heads up right now that if it starts raining i'm gone, after the scare I got yesterday on the Napier-Taupo road i'm not that keen to repeat, I need to sort things on my bike a bit I think, something we could have a natter about maybe.
I think I might ring Meanie tonight to see what's up not to mention check their route home on the ride thread.
