Spotted...

you're spotting skills are appalling in that case, our group of cyclists took over the whole front bit of the pub just as you went inside the door and my highly distinctive pink bike covered in duct tape was locked up right outside the front door as well...

I have to admit I was a little nervous as I was walking in to meet her...vaguely remember a group of people but quickly disappeared to the back for some food...

I'm absolutely fine and uninjured but...
Had a transit turn off left from the middle lane (indicating after he had crossed my lane) and smacked into the side of him. I reacted bloody quickly so managed to scrub loads of speed off.
I'm totally fine if a little shaken. Bike is at LBW, they are going to try to true rear wheel (which got wedged under van).
Van driver immediately stopped, admitted his mistake, apologised, wouldn't let me ride off until I had assured him I was ok...he even gave me his details just in case I needed a repair and I wanted him to pay. Maybe I'm being suspicious but sounds like he has something to hide!
I'm pretty chuffed at how I reacted to the hazard but fuuuuuck.
