but was riding along holloway road earlier and rode over something stuck in the road which caused an instant flat with quite a loud bang. the instant this happened a group of pikey kids sprang from around the corner and started towards me, i thought fuck this and chucked my bike on shoulder and darted through the traffic to the other side and made towards a police car. they were still on the other side looking at me but didnt follow. i made my way to cycle surgery which was quite close for a new tube and whatever it was in the road went through both sides of the tube.
i'm thinking of a new tv show crooks camera action where thieving gits use mini stingers in front of bikes whilst their mates film the subsequent beating/robbery on mobile phones, narrated by alistair stewart obviously.
