Bullet Proof!
Nov. 19th, 2005 01:03 amAfter a spate of recent punctures (which started the day I made the mistake of musing "it's ages since I've had a puncture"), the most recent of which left me racing for a train on an almost completly flat tyre until the tyre started to come away from the rim (just made the train thanks to the station master who took pity on me and held it while I locked the bike), I decided it really was time to invest in a new inner tube.
After the last time, I knew to ask for a slick tyre. The guy's eyes lit up. "We've just got new kevlar ones in, but they're a bit expensive." How much? "Twenty-five Euro." Well worth it if they're less prone to punctures than the old one.
So providing there's no armour piercing debris lying around the streets of Drogheda, I should be sorted.
