Out on the bike yesterday with some mates. 

Pushing quite hard in a few spots when the handling really started to go to shit. 

Barely got home. Front wheel bearing had shit it's self. Thank f it didn't happen in Derby although I think it was affecting the bike looking back and I just thought it was shitty vmax manners.

I soon closed the gap on you in corners, thought it was Vmax handling.

glad it was spotted sooner rather than later

Now the bearings are out it looks like some ham fisted fucker has just beat on the bearing land instead of the bearing its self when changing a set in the past. 

That left an edge propping the race so it was doome to fail early. 

Looking at the land the bearing looks like it had just started to turn (beginning to terminally sieze) as I got home.
