15 minutes ago, crossing tram tracks (Amsterdam!) in the wet. Front wheel just went on the metal, bike skidded in front of me. I followed. Bike ended up 5 metres down the road. Even more fucked up Brooks bar tape (now matching on both sides), and one broken bar end. Cuts and bruises only, on one side. Ripped trewsers and damaged ego.
Just put on brand new tyres yesterday! :)
Love Amsterdam though. One lady on a bike and two peds stopped to see that I was ok!
Be careful in the wet kids!
