We had a fellow from Oregon in a '23 Runabout who's rear hub broke the same way on the first day on the National Tour in Olympia, WA in 2000 - I loaded up his rear wheel and ran back to my shop about an hour away, disassembled the wheel, replaced his hub and they ran the rest of the tour that week - this is only the second hub I've ever heard of breaking like that !
