• Not exactly today's commute but ..........riding home on Monday evening - going North on 7 Sisters Road at the tube station junction I'm going thru green and there's nothing around me and a guy (dressed all in white) in a pure shiny white BMW coming South turned right in front of me, didn't stop but blocked me and despite hitting the anchors hard I hit his rear nearside panel and launched. I called the police and ambulance whilst he stood next to me saying it was an accident. In the end the police took me and my bike to Whittington Hospital - thanks guys - even bought me a coffee. I'm sore as hell literally and otherwise. My bike is wrecked/bent/fecked. I've a good witness - I think. Talking to Leigh Day solicitors. Be careful out there. PS - 16,000 miles on that Alex front rim......

  • ouch, glad you could walk away...

  • whilst he stood next to me saying it was an accident.

    With iPhone in-hand and WhatsApp open, yeah?

  • going North on 7 Sisters Road at the tube station junction

    I've also crashed into someone who cut across me at the West Green Road junction as I was heading north on the A10. Caught me totally by surprise. Must have been the pink Rapha jacket acting as camouflage.

  • Sorry to hear about the crash, MetalMelly. Out of interest, which junction on Seven Sisters Road was it? (There are a couple of Underground stations along it.)
