Be missing ya at Valley, your commentary about track conditions makes me put into words the vibes I got in my head

[@ponydown418]

Yea it sucks about valley. I do have about a 10% chance of making it depending on what happens at work today. Crossing my fingers.

Those zip ties held up far better than i expected. You were able have some good corner speed with the flat. Excellent video as always. I am leaving for valley in a couple hours, hope to see you there.

[@ponydown418]

Haha. Tell me about it. I thought that front end was going to be washing out or just excessive tire roll. Thanks a million for the zip ties. I don't think the tire would of held without them.

Like the intro, as for the Tubliss. I'd contact NeuTech about solutions for this. You wouldn't be the first to have issues with them. My go-to when having issues is to go right to pulling both valvecores, break the bead, and slosh in tons of soapy water and bounce the thing around for a few minutes. Then pump it back up slowly... really slowly

[@ponydown418]

Good tip. I'll have to give that a try. Now that I have everything broke down I can give it a good inspection to try to find the failure. I would like to know if I made a mistake or if it was a problem from neutech. I'll definitely reach out to them. Only about one hour on it from battle creek.

Best of luck... I'm still running a HD tube up front cause if that fails me I'm going to a Moose

[@zombanator3000]

Gonna be at Tin Roof?

[@ponydown418]

Yes!!! Just started prepping the bike yesterday. Are you going to be there?

[@zombanator3000]

@ponydown4189 yea. Hopefully I can get my gopro to stop giving footage that makes me look drunk while racing

@@zombanator3000 nice. I almost bought a 10 but decided to give the dji osmos 4 a try. That's the videos you have seen this year. Before that was gopro besides my first year making videos. That was a Garmin ultra 30.
