So did anyone figure out what happened with accidents and stuff?
There was talk about a road block that made 300 people stop. I hope everyone came out of it ok?
I circumnavigated a car where the lady driver waved us around it, a guy with a massive gash on his head sitting behind it on the kerb and several people with him.
I also witnessed a van nearly killing people by overtaking in a bend, then pulling right into a single file of riders when the inevitable oncoming traffic came round quickly.
While I kept pointing out potholes, shouting "car back" and doing the hand signals and all that, I think no one got it. At least no one formed a single file to let the cars pass, and some drivers got pretty irritated when people were riding 4 abreast and just ignored them.
