Racing Ralph, finally tubeless thanks to 'hostile monk'

while i had my rear wheel out today i thought i'd give the tubeless racing ralph a last chance. tried 'hostile monk's trick with the tie down strap around the tyre and the whole thing went up so easily I felt like a fool for mucking around with it for so long before.
so, if you ever have issues with getting a tubeless tyre to pop, forget about compressor, servo etc just get a tie down strap, some soapy water, track pump and you're done.
didn't even have to do the stan's dance. the only other thing that probably worked in my favour was that this time i did it in the sun and the sidewalls were nicely heated up.
cheers
