So I am in the porta jon...

at the ramp this past sunday and I hearthis loud banging noise, and a bang scraping schreeching thing. I come out and a guy who was towing his walk around had just lost his hub and tire 100' from the ramp. So close yet so far. He had driven all the way fromEast Bridgewater with his buddy, and two boys. He is lucky it happened where it happened. He had to flat bed it home I heard.

I saw him too, bet he never forgets to grease his wheel bearings again, wish I could have helped him but the whole hub was smoked and Schlagers showed up a few mins after us, his kids were a little disapointed though

Freebie, I felt bad for him to. The whole hub was junk, the axle looked ok though.
