My hotel. I'm too early to check in so I decided to spend the time putting some more air in the back tyre. After I changed the tube yesterday it's not as firm as it was when it left the shop, and I wondered whether that might be part of the reason why riding is so tiring. I didn't manage to put much more air in though because the pump kept jamming. I probably let more out than I put in. The pump did this once before and I managed to free it up but I can't remember how. If I did it by putting lubricant in it then I won't be able to do that just now because I haven't got any.

The building on the left in this picture is a Wal-Mart. I'll go there later and see if they happen to sell bicycle pumps or lubricant. If they don't then I'll just add those to the list of bicycle accessories that I want to buy on Friday, and hope that I don't get another puncture before then.

I also want to see if they sell painkillers. I brought some cold and flu remedies with me and I've been taking those for the last couple of days because they've got paracetamol in them. I've only got a few left now though. Last night the pain in my back meant that I woke up every couple of hours and had to have a walk around before getting back into bed.
