7 puncture in one tyre in 5000kim…..This gotta be some record.

Some time ago I posted pics where I fixed three holes in a newish Anakee.

Well yesterday I added 4….yes FOUR more holes to that tyre. And no it was not just small pepper pot kind of holes but big enough to swallow 3 BMW tyre fig rubbers. The first hole took 2 worms to fix. Next to each other as it was a long gash.  Second one took 1 worm and the 3rd one took 2. But being a big hole the worms got spitted out and I had to use the BMW rubber plugs. 3 next to each other. The lot held all the way from Loskop village to Bronkhorstspruit.

Stopped at the Wimpy for a Coke and guess what….hole number 4. A nail. No more plugs. Nothing I could do but to use the WD on call.

Great big thank you to GROENIE for come and pick me up.

Will post pics tonight.

Oh and before I forgot. The key hole in my spare TKC tyre. So its 8 holes in 3 months. :patch:
