Vachery tri

Late for race as gridlock in Guildford despite leaving hours early. Eventually decided to ride with Tri rucksack to race. Arrived just as race started. Got to lake edge 4-5mins after my race had gone. Caught up swim stragglers and made some progress on bike before ongoing terminal noises from bike forced me to stop and look; no rear skewer!!! Race over. Skewer found but long walk back to transition with binding rear wheel. Local bike shop kindly gave me new nut and spring FOC. Cycled back to car from there.
