The only collision I have had all year was with a pedestrian walking out between two cars into the cycle lane. Curbs on each side meant that the only course of action available to me was shoulder check the dude. Right now I am banged up with four broken ribs and a broken scapula but that was my fault I was racing along the river quay and I didn't slow down for the speed bump which subsequently threw me off. I might say that I have never had an accident involving any vehicles but then I am probably the sketchiest of the sketchy middle of the road riders.
