last minute hitches. It seems Peaches' tyre problem is systemic and the Schwalbe ultremo is prone to catastrophic failure. Schwalbe customer service suggested we both remove our tyres and replace them at their expense, which is indicative of how serious they think it is. Now, I've hit 76kph plus on those tyres, I dread to think what might have happened if, as they said, they split like a banana along the seam, at that speed. Shudder. Anyway, we're both now newly shod in Michelin Pro3 tyres, French tyres for a French odyssey I guess. Thanks to Peaches for doing the running around and getting the replacements.
