Fixing the almost "2 flats a day' that I have been getting lately. I can't run my tubeless tyres anymore (worn out), and with just 3-4 weeks of this trip to go, I am running tubes.

The 7 Stanes
For the past couple of days I have been bouncing around the 7 Stanes Trail Centres, and been having a really great time. More singletrack than my hands can handle....but its been amazing.

The 7 Stanes has an even amount of technical uphill as it does downhill.
Come accross a few of these signs, and as I have been riding by myself, I have to take it a little easier. So I usualy scout the area first, and then ride as hard as I can. With no mobile service at these places, and I was riding during the week when no one was there, I am not sure what I would have done if 'something' had gone wrong.
Yes, this was a 'singletrack' section....
I have to say, riding by myself has been good. Not in a hurry to push hard, and if I liked a section I would re-ride it. Lunch was always taken when I was out and about. I got four days straight riding out of my ground effects supertankers, they have been one of the best things I have bought on this trip. 5 years old, and still going strong.
