Cheers Des, ribs not too bad providing I neither move or breathe. I always get injured in May so this is hopefully the one for this year. Ride to work took a bit longer and I got funny looks doing my dogging noises along the Holloway Road.
For those not there, basically some badgers armed with magnets pulled Will off the side of the tarmac then reversed the polarity pushing Will the other way so he hit a lip on the road and was put off balance. Then a ninja badger shot out and kicked him off his bike spilling him across my path. I locked the front to try and avoid cutting him in half and went over the bars. Another badger shot out and put Will's wheel vertical just as my rib cage was coming down to earth and lined it up so it went between a couple of ribs. A lot of cartlidge is now loose in the rib cage causing some mild discomfort. The badgers then ran off into the hedgerow to check their footage of the crash and post it up on badger you tube for their friends. Needless to say these were highly trained badgers so we never saw them and they left no evidence of their ever being there.
Watch out for the little buggers, they know we are out there and they know our routes. Earlier on I saw them send a rabbit scurrying across the road in front of Zanda so we should have been alerted to their presence.
Otherwise this was a beutiful ride in warm weather on lovelly roads.
