And that there's very little point in trying to fix a pinch puncture. And to keep my eyes up a bit more when commuter racing.</p> <p>Will be sure to pay it forward. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8567#post-89696 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 17:33:10 +0000 chdot 89696@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Ta</p> <p>Ah - "stop"! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8567#post-89694 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 17:24:22 +0000 wingpig 89694@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p><a href="http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5681">"To stop or not to stop (...for another cyclist)?"</a> </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8567#post-89693 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 17:22:28 +0000 chdot 89693@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>We had a thread about 'should I offer to help' awhile ago. </p> <p>Can't think of any key words to narrow it down (suspect "puncture" won't be enough!) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8567#post-89692 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 17:15:59 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 89692@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Saw a chap this morning, but he was at the stage of pumping the tyre back up, so clearly wasn't in need of my assistance. But yes, I'll usually ask if someone is okay if they're stopped and looking mechanical, or even in certain circumstances if someone is pushing a bike.</p> <p>Fixed a puncture for someone in the rain a few months back - found it quite enjoyable chatting away, and got the warm fuzzy glow from the gratitude. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8567#post-89688 Fri, 02 Nov 2012 16:25:11 +0000 paul.mag 89688@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I stopped last night to help a fellow cyclist out with a puncture and it's one of the wonderful things about cycling that out of the 8 or so cyclists that passed more than half checked if all was ok. Not fixed a puncture in awhile, hope the guy got home ok! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=8567#post-86412 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 21:54:34 +0000 559 86412@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Puncture on way home tonight on NEdin path at bridge over Craigleith Drive :(<br /> But thanks to the two cyclists &amp; one pedestrian who asked if okay, welcome but thankfully not required. :) </p>
