Slime

Got back from a ride yesterday evening. Let the X cool down & went to put her to bed at around 6pm: I suddenly noticed the end of a nail sticking out of the back tyre I pulled it with plyers &: 'sssssssssssssssssssssssss............' all the air came out!!! I called my breakdown company - they said if its a tubed tyre, they'll truck it to nearest garage & get tube fixed. Bit of a problem when its a long bank holiday! Anyway, a nice (biker) AA man turned up half an hour later & filled tube with Slime. I haven't ridden today, & intend to get new tyre/tube in the next week or so anyway, but not sure about riding (apart from getting to tyre centre) in the meantime. AA paperwork says don't exceed 65mph & get permenent repair within 500 miles. Anyone got experience of Slime???
PS: apparently is a water soluble 'new AA' version....
