as today is carless day, siggimus last night took time out of his busy schedule to fix the rear tire of his bicycle
instead of trying to repatch the already patched tube, siggimus splurged on replacing it with a spanking new one, straight from the box!
not too easy to focus, with the little bundle of joy & beauty exercising her vocals at the same time
still, siggimus managed, and it only took about 30 mins to pump up the tire afterwards, with that cute, but minuscule bicycle pump
waking up this morning, siggimus is excited about cycling for the first time in 2 months or so, even if it looked a bit chilly out
so, on the bike siggimus climbs, heading off slowly into the chilly morn
careful and on the lookout for icy patches, and even carefuller taking care not to strain his by now decrepit muscles, siggimus takes it slowly, but shirley
things go well, and no icy spots to be seen
but hey! what is that odd, but by now nearly familiar clonk?
it can’t be!?
can it be?!?
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
the brand new tube has punctured
so, on the brand new tube, siggimus managed go a whopping 1,4 km, in about 3 mins, in the icy icy icy freezing cold
going back those same 1,4 km, bicycle with punctured rear tire in tow, takes 15, in the icy icy icy freezing cold
… to get the car & drive to work on carless day :s
so, happy fucken carless day!
