bugshaw at 04:44pm on 20/06/2007Just been out for my first bicycle ride of the summer! It's a nice quiet afternoon, there's a car number 317 half a mile away, so an ideal time to get the bike out for some practice.
The ride lasted 40 seconds, and now I need to learn how to pump up the tyres. They looked fine till I sat on the bike!
EDIT: I did find the pump and the valves, but couldn't connect them, even with the flexible tube thing. The Internet tells me I have Presta valves, so I might have to nip up to the cycle shop with my pump and wave it feebly and ask if it ought to connect and I'm just being dim, or if I need a special connector connector.
EDIT II: Cycled 15 minutes. Am knackered and my bum hurts. Is comfy sofa taim nao plz?
