Then again say "sod it", punctures happen and you've probably had your share for a while.

If I see a tall man in tears with a punctured tyre in his grubby hands I shall bring him a comfort beer.

Adrian I hate you - got a puncture this morning, first in weeks, and first at front in months. Front wheel doesn't have ceramic coating, so my rim and then hands were full of nice gunk, luckily my phone didn't rang after that.

And, first of two spare tubes I carry was leaking - obviously only noticed after installing it.

oh, and you also get more ounctures in the wet as the water acts as a lubricant for the cutting, try cutting dry rubber then try again wetting it, a big difference,

[Andrew G]

I daren't ask what you were doing with lubricated rubber Kieran.

as a good orish catholic I was cuttin' holes in those devilish devices for stopping (married) families havin' 10 million children each.
