I have been trying out my new Cyclamatic Power Plus for the last few days and it has been quite good fun - until this afternoon that is, when I managed to come face-to-face with a small but very deep pothole!
I spotted it at the last moment and just managed to lift the front tyre over it but, of course, the back tyre hit it with a heavy thud and immediately burst the inner tube. I pushed it the last 3 miles home and I'm having a bit of a sit down now before I go down to Halfords to get a new tube.
Of course, it would have been a relatively simple job to change the front tube but, I guess, it will be an early lesson about how to change the one with the gears on it.
I suppose these things are sent to try us!!
