Title: Sitting on the bank of the road ( Sung to a certain Otis Reading classic)

This happened at 80mph, at least it was the rear, woke me up a tad though

At least it was dry and fairly warm, I sat here for 2 and a half hours waiting for the SOS wagon.

Still as Chris said, saved  a fair bit of fuel, and Motorways are boring anyway, sitting or riding :icon_lol:

Have you noticed that when this happens it is always a philips type screw head? Never a straight slotted one...

To try and explain the day that Tim and I had organised would be complicated but the the plan was to meet up mid morning at Hoar park near Coleshill for the Wednesday morning old duffers bike meet,instead I'm in Yorkshire with a job that's gone belly up and he's stuck on the M50 with a puncture.
