After so many speed bumps in York on Saturday, today I thought it worth greasing every nipple on the Ruby. Then I noticed the broken spoke.
Intending to drive 40 miles this coming weekend I considered just driving with one less spoke, considered fitting the spare wheel, and then thought it isn't much work to fit another spoke. With a bit of heat and a tightly fitting adjustable spanner I soon removed a spoke from a rusty old wheel, and replaced the broken spoke quite easily. Didn't even remove the tyre.
