BANG!!!

Julie’s back tire exploded – it had also had enough of the rain! Luckily it was just a few hundred meters walk before we found a roof under which to shelter and repair it – let’s say this was no ordinary shower!

Would you believe that this was the first of 3 flat tires in 2 days and after 2,500km/1,500miles + almost the entire tire profile is gone.

Flat Tire

You never know when you will get a flat tire … this was the 6th in 2 months & on the gravel road through redwoods – little people get very excited about thee! Cause: brown glass.

Helpful Cyclist

After 50km came the first flat tire along with a friendly fellow cyclist, who on hearing our story spontaneously invited us to camp in his backyard – thanks Doug!
