Basically stop by a pub to be warned the next hill is steep, this guy walks down he has no brakes and first ride fixed (muppet)
Then next hill little less steep so he tries to go down, i'm talking to object17/emily and he yells "get out the way" way too late hits me, emily and clips mike
So then emily land in the side of the road on some leaves - knee in a bad way
I land on the road - same knee and hand in a bad way
Man - on the floor in pain - cut on his face>pretty cool story bro

Later we find out he broke his clavical / collar bone when he is taken away in ambulace with bike
BTW - local people were very friendly, helpful and kind
Reasons for accident
No brakes
First RIde Fixed gear ratio ... wait for it 50 : 14
The guy was quite old to 59
so he's getting a bill from me for new shorts and undergarments
