• Got taken out by a lady on a big heavy town bike on Tuesday. She was riding at night, no lights, way too fast and was obviously totally oblivious to what was going on around her.

    I was riding at a sensible speed and braking while approaching a reasonably blind little junction. She came barrelling out of nowhere (and it was pitch black so I couldn't see her because of her lack of lights) and didn't even attempt to brake (I did and nearly came off in the process!). She clipped my front wheel and sent me to the ground.

    She gave me a quick "Daijoubu?" ("Are you ok?") and then rode off into the night with nary a care in the world while I was left picking up myself and my bike and brushing down my road rash.
