Phew! Close One

Got the Pinarello back late Friday afternoon, gave it the once over & it all seems well, the new headset bearings are really smooth and a new cable has sorted out the gearing issues I've been having of late. The black Pinarello bar tape gives it a new fresh look & feels good t'boot.
Only thing missing are my new Continental GP4000S tyres - why are they missing I hear you ask? Well I started to fit them on Friday and noticed a flaw, what appears to be two holes or air bubbles which penetrate the tyre surface, so I have to send them back - they would really have been the finishing touch with the black bar tape. So, all ready for the Wyre Forest Stinger in the morning - hope the legs carry me to my 4 hr 30 minute target & Gold certificate.
