The afternoon commute (with the girls) went really well although I was happy to have made it home without having to walk...

The retaining pin on my v-brake cartridge seems to have backed itself out just enough to have scrubbed the sidewall of my tyre which was showing some good damage after just 20 - 30 km km of riding. It was fine when I checked it the other day and have not ridden the bike much at all.

I had been meaning to swap to thinner faster tyres so installed a 20 by 1.35 Primo Comet I had up front which, at 100 psi, will roll out much faster than the 60 psi 1.95 Kenda.

Now I have to go and pick up a mate for the Comet and get that installed... and they are evil little tyres to get on.

I am looking forward to the performance upgrade.
