Got a nice shiny Conti GP 4 season on the back now.
Also sorted out the annoying rattle that had been coming from the mudguard.

I had 3 punctures in quick succession last week....do I get the prize?

Thu morning commute - small chip of gravel
Fri morning commute - snakebite after hitting what looked like small pot-hole that I couldn't avoid due to car overtaking me at the time
Fri evening commute (I kid you not) - another snake bit me as I trundled slowly up a hill....what???

Today I wove around every pot-hole, badly-aligned-man-hole or remotely gravelly-looking piece of road....and annoyed a lot of car drivers.

Punture and slashed tyre this morning, Specialized Armadilo as well, certainly doesn't do as it say's on the tin :(
