Second day back in the saddle after busting open my knee in a run-in with a minicab, and I end up on the deck again.
A couple of twats thought it would be fun to walk their puppy without a lead on a busy, wet-leaf-covered cycle path. It decided that it wanted to know what the underside of my wheels felt like.
Could have killed it to teach them a lesson, but it wasn't the dog's fault so I bailed on the grass. Wasn't going quickly, so just got a little graze (same knee) and my bike was fine.
What is wrong with these people? A bike goes past that spot at least every 10 seconds all day, every day. In my opinion, dogs shouldn't be kept in cities, let alone on cycle paths. Fucking ridiculous.
Anyway, be careful with all the wet leaves about.
