Presta Valve?

Just bought a new inner tube today (Maxxis 26x2.20/2.50).
It has a Presta valve (see photo) and i have no idea how to inflate it :/ (Don't say use a pump)
Rookie question i know, but i guess that's what this site is made for.
Any advice would be helpful as i would like to ride asap, ie tomorrow haha.

Wild fling in the Himalayas [Nepal]

Below is a preview, click to read the full post

Quick update from a recent fling with the Himalayas (Nepal).

During a recent work-trip to Nepal, I was able to escape from the hustle of Kathmandu to do a short 2 days stint of serious mountain biking in the foothills of the Himalayas.

We met Tangi, a french pro-MTB rider (and local resident for the last 5 years in Pokhara) and he took us to his favourite trails for the next 2 days. He used to be a competition rider for COMMENCAL (a well-regarded MTB brand in Europe) and is sponsored by the company to teach 15 local Nepali kids to become pro-riders.
