Totally a day of disaster.My bike rear rim has several cracklines ,most probably resulted from the bad gravel downhill from SengLidabang where I had a fall. And now I realised that the last 3 of 4 flat tyres were due to the same spot on the crack rim. Temporary cut the rubber tube as rim tape and hope it can last another 60km to Toktogul where I hope to find a bike shop to replace the crack rim.What a bad Day!
