Did my first ever nose manual today across the zebra crossing at the top of Southampton Way/Peckham Road this morning when I didn't see a pedestrian on the crossing until the last second and slammed my brake on.
I really wish I'd been able to see it, I have no idea how close I came to going over the bars but I'm feeling pretty pleased with myself that I held it together without even really noticing what I was doing.
