The title may be the best part of this, it makes it seem a lot deeper than it actually will
.
So this is an update on my bike escapades. I wrote a lovely blog on my bike and drivers inability to coexist with it>>>go check it out ![]()
So on Monday I got a puncture about half way home which is about 10 I've had in about 2 years which is a hell of a lot for anyone who's interested. However for a change I actually found what made the hole. I had a mega two and a half inch nail protruding from my back wheel :O I still have it somewhere I think as a warped momento of the occasion.
Just on a side note, I was so annoyed walking my bike the rest of the way home. EVERYONE was staring at me like I was some sort of leper!! It is quite obvious that I wouldn't walk along with my bike without good reason, I'd actually ride it if I could you know!! Well that really put me on a downer anyway
Sooooo back to what I was saying, I got home and my dad and I, well mainly my dad
patched up my tyre so I could ride to work the next morning. I wished he hadn't bothered though as it hammered it down with rain on Tuesday morning but I suppose you have to take the rough with the smooth ![]()
Now the only problem I have is my brakes don't work :O So my brake is now my feet until I get time at the weekend to tighten up the brakes. Combined with the wet weather made things a bit tricky so far this week but I've been practicing and know my foot braking zones now
Obviously if I never post another blog its because my judgement on foot braking wasn't as good as I thought.......
