[SIZE=2]There was a pre-arranged lunchtime drinks leaving ‘party’ for someone at work so my mate sensibly opted to leave the bike at home that day knowing he’d more than likely get pissed up . He did.
About 3pm he announced that he had to go and pick up his daughter from school and thats the last we saw of him until the next morning when he turned up patched up , bruised and bloodied. Some folks asked if he’d got into a fight but it turned out that when he got home he thought it would be a ‘nice idea’ to cycle to the school and take his daughters bike with him as it was a lovely sunny day and it would be a nice surprise for her.
That’s what he tried to do but got 50 yards and crashed with himself and the 2 bikes. He walked the rest of the way (with the bikes) to the school gates and waited with all the other parents/guardians to greet his daughter .
This was a school that was actively promoting cycling for kids …..
