It probably fell off on the way home last night.

It's underneath Ben, so no need to damage anything.

I had the valve caps nicked off mine - not by some kids to stick on thier BMX's as you may expect, but by two middle aged men who used pliers to get them off because they were locking ones.

The caps cost me about £3 - if they were that desperate for some I would have bought them some rather than having them gouge the paint off and tear the valve out of onethe wheels !
