What a puncture!

Ride commenced today with a slow puncture but I was hopeful it would seal, given the wheel has a self sealing inner tube.

It was warm, dry and I felt good. And then I heard a clattering noise and I got the mother of all punctures. a 4" nail through the tread and out through the sidewall! No way that the tube would seal that and the tyre is fooked!

Was looking for a reason to buy some new summer tyres and now I have one.

13.8 miles 11.1 mph average.
