Why would I do that? I think you missed the point that the puncture forced me to do something I hadn’t planned to do which was ultimately very enjoyable.

That’s the one.

I guess so, whilst it can be annoying in the moment for the most part I am happy to walk home and take that risk.

That one pinch flat I mentioned was during an acid trip and turned what would have been a slightly better than average 60km road ride into a 3 plus hour trek through some beautiful countryside with a great hour long chat with my mum on the phone. I still fondly remember that day and needless to say I wouldn’t have had such a great day if I’d had a repair kit on me.

However everyone will have different experiences with punctures xD

Doki doki literature club.

I couldn’t see it recommended anywhere which surprises me considering the hype around it when it first came out. This is the only game I have ever played that gave me a genuine feeling of unease throughout. Pretty sure it is free on steam too.

I’ve seen one of them once in my city, so I think it was more of a one off ran by an LBS, so I definitely think that is a perk of where ever you are located.

Armourer tyres more than do the job for me and I am already carrying my lunch and clothes and other shit in my backpack, I don’t need innertubes and tools adding to that weight :D

Tyres definitely make a lot of difference in my experience. Changing out the cheap schwalbe for a specialised crossroads that is armoured made all the difference. I haven’t had one puncture with that tyre, can’t recommend an armoured tyre enough if you are using your bike all the time and want reliability!

For shorter distances I will always choose to skate, it is much more convenient as I don’t have to deal with locks and helmets and specialist shoes etc and isn’t much slower unless there are significant uphills.

Good bit of cross training too pushing a skateboard instead of pedalling xD

I carry nothing, I have cycle commuted on this bike 4 - 5 days a week for the last 7 years or more as well as doing rides for myself. When i first got the bike I had a couple of flats on the rear, I changed the tyre and since then I’ve had 1 flat in around 6 and a half years so I just don’t see the point.

The flat I did have was a pinch in the front from a huge pothole I didn’t see on a route I didn’t know so it was what I would consider exceptional circumstances too.

How often do you actually use that stuff?

Found this looking for a beatmatch or dj community. Did you have any luck finding any?

Beatmatch specifically was great as it wasn’t as gate keepy in my experience.

God I am sick of remakes and remasters of all the same old shit.

The co-op own brand version of kettle are the best flavoured salt and vinegar crisps I have had in a long time as I have found most other brands taste more watered down these days. Don’t know if that is changes or my taste buds getting old but they hit the spot!
