I had an old Lemond that I bought off a forumite. Had a nasty prang where I rode into the back of a post van because I was distracted by some woman in a Jaguar who was beeping me and buzzing my back wheel. A couple of weeks later, I heard an odd 'ping' on the way home and made a mental note to check it out. Setting off from the next lights, the headtube separated from the rest of the bike and I fell on my face. Was quite glad it had happened from stationary and not going downhill.
