3 punctures

[Tom Crispin]

Neither my bike or the school's pool bikes are prone to punctures. I
have remakably few to fix - or to hand over to children to fix. But
this week I have had to fix three. One on an Islabike Beinn 26 and
two on Islabikes Beinn 24.

The causes:
1 - a tiny shard of glass
2 - a thorn
3 - unknown

And last week my own bike got a puncture. I was too busy watching an
aeroplane land at Docklands' Airport to notice the broken bottle on
the promenade... Crunch... Hiiiisssssssss...

Wet week, this. More chance of a puncture when the road is wet. I got one
today as well.
