Well it was an eventful day, 5 miles out I sheared off my inner tube valve as I was trying to pump the tyre up. Noticed I was running on bold tyres, but decided to risk it as the bike is in for it’s service in 10 days time. 65 miles out I was riding in a monsoon my wet gear didn’t stand a chance but I was only 10 miles from home so just kept riding, I was a drount rat by the time I got home, where did the summer go???
