can you spot what it was? (those not keen eyed or of a lazy disposition may click the piccy for the answer).

not happy. :? :(

 
If you look carefully at the close up, you can see part of the thumb from a glove coated with orange coloured rubber - I do carry a small piece of plastic and inner tube for such eventualities (2nd time it has happened) but found the glove nearby.

Anyways, anobody used that patch n the ^^^^ link?

I was going to try fixing the tyre (limited edition Cube red :? ) with some vinyl back cloth but previous experience has shown it is difficult to get anything to stick to the inside of the tyre - it needs to stick to prevent bulging and further tearing.
 
I've been running a Velociraptor for a few years with a duct tap fixed slice in the sidewall, not quite the same admittedly but similar. I refused to bin the tyre as it seemed to fix it, looks like I was right for once!
 
Renowned for having thin sidewalls these. Use it as an excuse to get some more durable tyres on there, it will only happen again.
