You hoard hardware when you do repairs .You are given the hardware as a prize when you buy parts .When you do repairs parts sometimes come with extra nuts and bolts and you save them .None of the above choices .
How would previous technical faults have yielded nuts and bolts ?
I have lost my flip - flops , my cooking pot and then one of my panniers half fell off . Luck for me I have many spare nuts and bolts from previous minor technical faults , so ten mins and I was off again . Finally at about 8 pm on the 21st December 2007 , I arrived in Ushuaia ! YES ! ! ! ! ! !
