I dragged my Tourer out today. It's not been used since <hangs head in
complete shame> 2004. As I approached Kingsbury, my front tyre went pssssss.
I'm now running the front wheel with English air, and the rear with
Scottish.

If you were in Northern Ireland, just over the border from Ireland,
youi might be using the Londonderry air.

That's almost bad enough to have come from a London derriere.

Is the rear wheel demanding to become a unicycle ?

Clearly, the Scottish wheel is doing more than it's fair share of the
work, while being plundered of resources by the freeloader up front.
Meanwhile the English wheel of course is in fact subsidising /
supporting the Scottish one by generously allowing its precious air to
be used almost entirely for steering and control.
It'll be interesting (if potentially painful) to see what happens should
either wheel achieve independence though... :-)

I don't know about speed, but I would bet the one with English air is
lighter than the one with Scottish air.
