I crashed yesterday out in the lanes of Kent. Came up to a left hand corner and as I turned the bike went from beneath me as the whole road was one big sheet of ice. There followed a comedy moment as I tried to get up on the icy surface before the car I could hear approaching got to the bend. It was like Bambi on Ice. Grazed my left elbow, hip and knee and tore my bibtights and have a slight tear on my softshell jacket.
