Rode through a big patch of oil at the petrol station just up the road today. How long might oil stay on the tyre? Do I need to take it a bit easy on the commute tomorrow morning? Or is it nothing to worry about if you don't fall off at the time? There's no visible oil I can see on the tyre.

Just give it a scrub with some hot soapy water if you are worried.

Get to wiping it off as above. It's not worth risking.

Once the tyre looks clean you are good to go.
