Was out that way yesterday, I was about to tag along with a group I'd just seen head off that way, only to see them all coming back a minute later. Big sign saying it was closed due to an incident :(

How sad.

You also have to remember that just because the sun is out it's not summer. It takes longer to get heat in your tyres this time of the year. I'm not suggesting this is what happened to this poor fella, just take care everyone.

Chris.
