Last night coming home just off elephant and castle. Some massive pled in a taxi decided he was going to squash me in the bike lane.
Bars hit the side of his cab, I bashed on the side of his cab a lot. Crank hit the curb and threw me off into the road just behind the taxi.
A guy in a red car stopped but he didn't really see it... And the two roadie guys who where right behind me cycled straight off!!! Much to my surprise (if anyone knows these people please get them to contact me and I will forgive this douchiness)
Picked myself up and as everyone had left thought there was no hope... Taxi driver fucked off straight away.
Started walking home as my front tyre had popped and the guy who was in the taxi came up to me, he'd had a go at the taxi driver, got out and managed to get the drivers identification number before he drove off. Then come found me, good guy! So phoned police, spent next hour sat by side of road giving statement and then the next 3 hours in a&e with a suspected fractured collar bone (was actually fine just bruised)
Always amazes that people drive off after these things, if anyone sees a black cab with 89467 on the back punch him in the face and get him to buy me an inner tube...
