Does this mean youve got your wheels sorted out? Gator skins are pretty good but its worth going over them with a pair of tweezers as the rubber's good and grippy but soft so flint can work its way in to the inner tube.
Hopefully see you out saturday

Having done a similar walk home, in the rain, from the Colonnades to near the Mayday, in Look cleats, I recommend cleat covers, aka cafe covers, which protect both your skins and hardwood floors from wear.

I know GB's have them - summat like £5.

Of course you lose that pivoting/skidding ability. Every rose has its thorn.
