Sorry to hear that Ian

I was so busy enjoying the ride home I nearly ran out of fuel.  Dash said low fuel and 0 litres, I asked sat nav to take me to nearest station.  It was closed >:(.  Asked for next one which was miles away. Doesn't seem as deepest darkest Hampshire has many stations.  Finally filled up and found there was still 10 litres in the tank!

It was good to meet more Atom owners.  It was a great morning out, although the Atom did look a bit ordinary next to some of that exotica

Sorry to see that Ian. At least you are both ok!

Good to see everyone. Sorry didn't catch up with Sven and Chris and any others. Another good STS!

Hi Nick
Strange it still had 16psi when I got it home.
Lucky
Still think it happened at Combe the reason I was so slow.  ::)

Ian

Did you spin onto / over the raised curbs @ Combe when you spun? That might have been when the damage was done. ???

But tbh if it stayed up and didn't lose air it shouldn't have affected anything really. Just a risk of rapid deflation IMO.

Hi Peter
Not sure if I started the damage a Combe
Didn't look maybe the final straw was the kerb though
Now just got to find a new one.
