Too late to finish tonight, but think I may have goosed the tyre! As it is tubed, I will be getting the wheel off early and hunting for a replacement...proving to be an expensive week...
I did he same thing but on a rear tyre stuck in the middle if France in no mans land under 38 degree heat with no shade........ I know how you feel its bad news on such a new tyre.
