Roadside/emergency bike repair photos

[D.M. Procida]

Hi. I'd like to illustrate some graphics teaching I'm doing (secondary
school) with a photo of someone doing some roadside bike repair. It can
be anything, and if it's pouring with rain and the situation looks grim
so much the better. Anyone got any suitable photos they wouldn't mind
being used in an educational context?

I also want to illustrate some copyright issues, so I will be explaining
how I needed to ask permission before use and so on.

Thanks,

Daniele

I've had a trawl through the Surrey and Sussex Tandem Club website and
picked out a few. As the urls seem a bit long winded I've downloaded
the images and can email them to you. Is it OK to email you directly?

Yes, that would be fine. Or email me the longwinded URLs. Anything will
be gratefully received.

Just the kind of thing, but unfortunately it will need to be in a higher
resolution than that - one of the things I'll be demonstrating is the
need for high resolutions for print.

If you login to Flickr then lots of extra options are available - like
"ALL SIZES".
You can open a Flickr account for free. It is part of Yahoo so you
should be able to login with your Yahoo username if you have one.

Photos are tagged with keywords, so you might find some more if you
search for "puncture" or something.

How soon do you need them? I've got a few Audax rides coming up, which
is usually a cue for the Puncture Fairy and her close friend the Bad
Weather Fairy to put in an appearance - I shall get some shots for you
if an appropriate opportunity arises.

Not exactly what the doctor ordered, but is this any use?

No. Amazingly enough I had been puncture free so far this year until
this Tuesday evening when I picked up a sliver of brown glass on the
one-way system in Kingston town centre. I was only being lulled into a
false sense of security.
