Spent 1/2 the day on the bike today. Left just before 6am & rode to Kotara just taking my time. I noticed my tyre was down quite a bit but had enough pressure to get to mum's at Belmont. I stopped there for about 1n hour and after some coffee, alomnds, toast with jam & 2 cans of pepsi I changed my tube & got going again. The problem I have when I get a flat is my hand pump is shit & only puts about 50psi in the tubes. So I'm riding the rest of the way on really low pressure which makes it a lot slower ride and much easier to get pinch flats. And thats what happenend at Budgiwoi.
I stopped for a quick drink of coke and a cherry ripe bar at a servo at the entrance and back to life again.
Got home around 1:30pm. About 7 & 1/2hrs after I left. I was riding for a total of 5hrs30min or around 27km/hr. 147km all up
