  • Don't ride on drain covers or at least don't try and accelerate on them, problem solved.

    Actually, Britain is stupid with it's metal drain covers. Sensible countries (you know who I'm talking about) tarmac over them so they can still be opened but don't present a wet, slippery square death trap to cyclists.

  • Good advice. I avoid them when actually cornering or (heaven forfend) leaning, but sometimes when you're pulling away from lights or whatever you've just got to go straight over it.
