Default stooopid is . . . . .

. . . . . setting off on the morning commute and only realising you hadn't properly attached your topbox when you hear it come crashing off while tootling along a bumpy 30 near home.

luckily it bounced well, made a nice loud crashing sound behind me which I noticed and I then noticed in my mirrors that something on the back of the bike was missing.

hi. my name is charlie, and i'm stooopid.

if it hadn't had my sandwiches in and I had been spotted i may have been tempted to carry on and deny all knowledge out of sheer embarrasment. but as it was I was witness free!!
