And a front puncture on the way home!

Well after this mornings rear puncture on the way to work, I got a front puncture 3 miles from home on the way back tonight. I had used my gas cylinder this morning so decided to ride on a flat tyre as I didn't fancy the walk. All was going OK (or as OK as can be) until the last mile where I broke a spoke as well. Managed to ride all the way home but need to do some work on the bike now. Never mind it could have been worse.

Dude! Always carry a micro pump when, 2 spare tubes, puncture kit, chain breaker and Jaffa Cakes when commuting!

They jumped out at me too - but as useless high carb cr*p LOL!

I second the micro pump and chain breaker - had to phone a friend 10 miles out when I broke a chain last year - lesson learned!
