A day of looking after the bike today - a pair of new tyres and an oil change. Whilst out getting the tyres the sidestand snapped in two. Fortunately there was a welder just around the corner and within 45 minutes I was on my way again. I did consider posting a picture but I thought a photo of Chilean welding would probably only appeal to quite a niche audience so here's one of a local park instead.
