What a shock!

Driving down the A1 today on my way to work, listening to Minster FM (other radio stations are available), and BANG! Wobbly steering wheel and loud scraping noise followed by a horrible burning rubber smell. I get to the Hard shoulder, jump out of the car and find this... :



I think to myself... that's a flat tyre, where did the bang come from? and then I swap it for my spare and see this on the back...:








So long story short, my tyre self destructed at 75-ish mph and ruined the start of my week Big Cry

any one got a 255/55r19 wrangler duratrac going spare? Mr. Green
 what is this life, if full of care?
we have no time to stand and stare.
