Tyre Blowout
JohnJohn posed the query:
Or a Powerbar wrapper, though that does leave you the problem of what to do with the Powerbar. 1. Contemplate how they compressed so much dogsh*t into such a small volume, or 2. Marvel at our continued willingness to let marketing triumph over nutrition. The durability of their wrappers is by any measure extraordinary and poses much less risk to our legal tender. Best, andrew |

was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea: JohnJohn posed the query: Or a Powerbar wrapper, though that does leave you the problem of what to do with the Powerbar. 1.

You forever lost that $10 on the powerbar though. No one's going to buy it off you when you finish with it. -- TimC "And Rob convinced me to learn perl.

And how does random grass do better in this respect? What if there are no leafy greens of the required size in the area you're biking in? I think the post about dried grass was very much TIC. A $5 bank note is as light weight as a patch, very resistent to stretching, doesn't rely on glue, and is frequently always available in your, or your mate's, wallet. Carry one and use it when needed. -- Cheers Peter ~~~ ~ _@ ~~ ~ _- \, ~~ (*)/ (*) |
