NO No NO - thats the flipping frustration - I had a greaser at Aeroden two weeks ago (beautiful!!) the weekend before Numbi... Flew to Numbi with the GT 450's and went yestrday to go and fly - Discovered my flipping nose wheel was flat - Removed tyre to find about a three centimre split in the tube.. tyr wouldnt keep any air in - so it was between the time that i put the plane away last time, until yesterday that the split appreared??? WTF ??? anyway - no biggie just need a new tube -

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

Hey Dish, if you don't get a tube you can always take the wheel of and fit a Dish or a Skottel.

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
