Awww, crap! I had every intention of going on that ride, but after a tough ride home last night, I slept in until 0600. No way I was going to make it. I was very unhappy with myself. I'd been looking forward to it for aaaaaaages!

Not so awesome. But hey, at least you know you can fix a flat on that sucker! When my mum replaced her bike last year, it was much to her dismay that she discovered the combination of her tyres with new rims was completely impossible for her to get on/off without help from her hubby.

Yes, and there's no way I'm sleeping in! I wanna go through the new Clem7 tunnel and see what all the fuss is about! I presume you're going? DD too?
