He won't be the first to be rear-ended in Brighton

Hope he gets it sorted

Sorry, I'm about 12 miles away but don't have a trailer!

I dont think he needs a trailer there is no mechanical damage I,m aware of, its more something to re-attach his arch and lights and make it safe to do 3000 miles in 10 days, I would guess he needs some ally sheet and some rivits and loads of gaffer tape .m.

A fibre-glass repair kit from Halfrauds might be a more solid solution - should still be open until 8-8:30ish.

I'm about 15 miiles north on A23. Have ally and rivets, even rear lights at a pinch (as I'm not on the road yet).
