2 punctures, broken mini-pump, no cash and Cycles UK was NOT open at 8 this morning, but thanks to the couple of cyclist who offered me a spare inner tube.

That will teach me for telling DW that commuting by public transport is stressful.

    That's a b&ugger. I had two visits from the PF yesterday. Seen a good few the last couple of days who've had similar visits.

    i had one yesterday, had to change tubes in the hail and thunder! good times...

    think i might have to change my vittoria rubinos as the rubber has massive cuts in after just 500 miles!! what is that?! my gatorskins lasted some 3000 before i changed them...

    who else makes yellow bombproof tyres??

    There was a recent thread on this. I was going to buy some Rubinos instead of Gatorskins, but just not convinced by them for the commute.

    YELLOW! :shock: :)

    How about Michelin Krylion Carbons?

    well need the yellow tyres to match the yellow team banana

    agreee not impressed at all with rubinos, seem a bit slippery in wet compared to gatorskins too...
