Did this on my hack commuter bike, with a pannier full of clothes, in my jeans, at 7am, the morning after a dodgy Chinese meal. I'm trying hard not to barf as I type this. Oh aye, I think I've got a slow puncture in my back wheel. Not a bad effort for a 15 and a half stone lump, all things considered!
