Get the right size and check the bike shops. Most carry stock.

I found a tube for my Gyro's 5.5' front wheel at a Disabled Supply shop. The kind that sells and repairs electric wheelchairs. They had a vast range of weird sized tubes for these devices. The Michelin equivalent cost Coyote about R500 from NAC at Rand and I paid about R30! Try that if you don't come right Dish.

As for the kids in the back of the car, a few "taai klappe" usually works vhpy
