Default how lucky was I today

Got back in the yard this afternoon, fully loaded walked round the trailer to put ramps down and lift the decks to unstrap the cars and found my NSF tyre on the trialer like this





The rtead has come away from the tyre wall. Tyre is only 3 months old aswell. That would of hurt if it went bang on the M62 this aft

Can't wait to see what the ATS guy is gonna do in the morning. I don't think I'd like to be getting up close and personal with tha tyre and a sledge hammer to remove the wheel!! It could blow at any second Think I'll sit in the canteen til he's finished or I hear a big bang

yeah still fully inflated. It wasn't like that at Salford when I left there. Pulled into Birch Services on the M62, got some diesel and a butty and it was still fine cos I checked em all. Must have happened between there and Leeds. Lucky it didn't go pop down Brighouse bank cos its a steep fooker and I was going a little bit quicker than 60
