Figured the Coach Road would be too muddy, so fought the headwind along the Lancs instead, which meant I came through the village and past the village hall.
Had to dig a shard of glass out of the back tyre on the way home.
The windswept East Lancs isn't the *best* place to do repairs, but at least it was dry and not half-a-mile further on when I'd have been next to a freshly manured field
@amcewen oof. Glad you got home safe?
@urlyman yeah, avoided a bit of the route through the woods to let me check the puncture repair was going to hold (and still be on streetlight roads if it didn't )
Could've done without it, but not too big a deal. I always have all the bits to repair things with me.
