an american valve, a british or dunlop is a woods.

ok. well, at that point i think i was several hundred miles from the nearest
air compressor. not that i could have asked for one, not speaking much more than
"where's the w.c.?" in burmese.

here's a fun fact. burmese road markers are in 1/8 mile segments. furlongs.
freaking furlongs.
