Bloke in the passenger seat clipped my handlebars opening his door as I was filtering past him. Just about managed to stay upright as I shouted out an exasperated "fucking heeeelllllllll".
He was very apologetic, pure luck that it only clipped the bar.
First time anything like that has happened to me and I was pretty shaken up, not sure if I was supposed to be pissed off or not but I wasn't really thinking straight. Remembered what a few on here said about taking a few moments to compose myself rather than jumping back on, which helped, so cheers.
