At the Amberley Museum. The metal tyres were heated, prior to being dropped over the wooden wheels.

The first wheel was successfully tyred, the second was a problem. This picture was taken between the first and second attempts. It was a re-built wheel utilising the original hub and a tyre dating from 1909.

After three failed attempts on the second wheel, the team called it a day.
