[Cycling] Another flat... but a weird one

It's never ending. I left the venue last night to find that my back tyre was flat again. Today I did the inner tube in the sink thing to see where it was leaking... it was the valve. Then I noticed that the valve actually unscrews from the, um, other bit of the valve that is connected to the tyre. I've never seen this before. I doubt I will ever have an inner tube that will outlast its valve but I suppose it is quite a cool to be able to replace them. Those are the bits that unscrew on the right hand side of the pic above.

Anyway, you live and learn I guess.

Seems to be fixed but I bet the damned thing is flat again when I head out in 15 mins.
