If it was about lunchtime today, I was lying there too on a different road. Potholes all over the place, moved to avoid them and hit a patch of deep gravel. Went down uncannily like Beloki in the Tour but thankfully without his consequences.
What really got me though was that as I stood there on a very quiet, narrow road, shorts and top ripped to pieces, blood all down my left leg and arm, whacking my brake levers back into place, 4 (four!) cars passed me and all completely ignored me.
Sod it, it's only skin I suppose ...
