You know how I've always said, that if something bad had to happen with
BOB, it's always been in a safe and convenient place.
Well...this was brought home to me today. The brake light was on when I set out for Ottawa from Petawawa Sat. night after the event. Checked the brakes and they were fine. So I decided not to worry.
It was still on when I left Ottawa on Sunday morn to go home. Got home, parked BOB and that was it. I did notice that the brakes were feeling not quite normal so I drove slower than normal and left LOTS of room behind the car ahead.
This morning I brought BOB into his second home to have them checked.
I found out this afternoon that there was a crack in the brakeline within the frame (probably meant under the frame).
The Gods are good. BOB will be fine. I will be too, once I get over the realization of just how close we were to major nastiness.
