Look at your boogie wheels

So the other day I took of from the trailer and after the first corner I noticed my buddy wasn't behind me. So As I waited, hoping there was nothing wrong with his sled he came around the corner holding one of my rear boogie wheels.

Turns out my bearing had seized (on a previous ride) and The entire bearing had torn out of the wheel. Luckily I had a back up on the trailer so we still had a good ride. So I bought a bearing from the dealer 8 bucks and since I had to buy one I checked the other bearing that bearing too was just barely holding on to the wheel. So 16 bucks a large socket, hammer, and butene torch and I had both wheels fixed. It would have sucked to lose either wheel in the mountain.
