The photographs were taken at Tremanskärr on August 14th.
Today I got a puncture in the rear tire of the bicycle, and I had still 1/3 of the way home left. Luckily the puncture happened near a bus stop.
At home I changed the tire, both the inner and outer one. There was a 5 mm long slash in the inner tire, made by something sharp. The puncture happened not far from the place where a similar thing happened last spring.
I was a bit surprised to get a puncture. The Swalbe Kojak outer tire has puncture protection, but I guess it isn't foolproof. I replaced it with a Marathon Plus tire. A couple of years ago I used a pair of Marathon Plus tires, and never got puctures. They lasted until they were completely worn out and had to be replaced.
