I'm trying very hard to think when I last had an (A7) puncture. I think it was on the Windmill Run a good 20 or 25 years ago. On that occasion I was immediately taken in hand by a kind local chap - I think he'd been a trucker - who sat us down with a 'koffie' while he insisted on removing and repairing the tube for us on his kitchen floor. Nowadays I often leave the spare wheel at home as it's heavy and takes a lot of space out of an Ulster 'boot'; & carry a spare tube and a pair of tyre levers instead. I'll worry about air when I need it...
