Check your tyre pressures!

Not been out on the bike for god knows how long, being a fair weather tart . Anyway, popped out today .

Got to the end of the road and thought the bike felt odd, guessed it was just me being rusty . First mini rounabout felt worse! . Went straight back home, bike made a thud as it went up the dropped kerb onto the drive .

Checked the tyre pressures, front was 22 and rear was 23! . That will be the problem then!!. checked my other bike and that was almost identical, both wheels at 26.

So folks if your bike has been laid up for a while, check your tyre pressures before going out for the first time!.
