I just went out to the car to grab something from the boot, and noticed that the bike was leaning a bit more than usual. It's been outside the back gate all day on its sidestand, where it usually lives. As I wandered over to look, I found a rather large hole in the tarmac with the end of the side stand in it.
The photo doesn't really do it justice, the hole's a fair bit deeper than it looks.
I'd dimly heard of bikes going over because the tarmac's melted under the sidestand, but didn't really believe it could happen.
I guess I'll be sticking it on the centre stand over the summer
