Tire/ Tyre. At least I got the 'whilst' right, eh? Upon dismounting, I noted that the tire is slit all the way through and it also nicked the tube. I will junk it.

"Two nations divided by a common language" :-) If it's got as far as nicking the tube, then you're right to chuck it. I had a similar thing happen to me, fortunately at slow speed, except the tyre literally went down with a bang. That needed a new tyre and tube!
