100km is nothing, 5/6 hours a day tops on a bumbling along speed

Is it possible (or even worth trying) to fix a tyre? I mean the tyre itself, not the tube.
Had a 10cm nail go through the bottom of the sidewall and out the middle of the tread, probably a 4mm tear for both holes. Other than that the tyre has a lot of life left in it.

Yep. You can turn condoms inside out as well when you've finished with them

Take the tyre off the wheel.
Put some ducktape inside of the tyre, flip it around and then stick some superglue in the hole on the outside.
Sorted.
