That's a spectacular route at any time of year Ruairidh. Quite an achievement. I came close to being stranded in snow at the Lecht one new year's eve (in a modern) so I appreciate how wild and remote it is.
Do you know the cause of the puncture? I've had 2 new tubes fail this year with corrosion between the valve stem and the rubber. The ones they replaced had been on since the 1950s and had patches on top of patches (11 on one tube I think). Perhaps I should have kept them!
