Polo, polo, polo. Change the record already! I, quite frankly, have other things that I'd rather be doing with my time. If you choose to get battered about on a polo court that's your choice. I took up cycling to get fit and, more importantly, not be reliant on TfL. Taking up cycling wasn't some vain attempt at trying to be a daredevil and wanting to "feel alive". I just want to get to work on time, maybe go for a ride in the evenings/weekends and do so safely.
I'm not some lazy layabout cunt that pounces on any opportunity to sue another person. I said that I wasn't looking for compensation. What happened today was dangerous and could have ended up a whole lot worse. I know y'all don't mean any ill will but it is what it is and I thought I'd see what you'd do in the given situation. That is all. I was more than expecting the usual HTFU comments but I'm no scrounging bastard so shut ya pie hole, preachers! ;)
