Forum Rider Down and/or notification of minor incidents

Me again.

Driver trying to enter into the Jet petrol station on Brentford High St pulled right across my path approx 20mph inducing an epic skid to avoid resulting in an equally epic Dukes of Hazzard bonnet slide ending in a not so epic heap on the floor.

Because I had the sense to leap she don't crushy leg the pedal cage went through the bumper crushing the cage and my saddle is proper fucked.

Everything else spins fine handle bars didn't need adjusting but as it's steel I should get it checked

She wouldn't give me her details saying "you wait here and I'll go home an get them" so I rang 101.

Police came details were exchanged.

Currently in West Mid A&E awaiting X-ray of my wrist (the one I broke last time)

Hope you're doing OK now, nothing broken?

Hmm - seems to be lots of it around atm.

I got wiped out by a Boris bike riding c*nt on Friday morning who cut across my path on that cycle route avoiding Elephant, near LSBU and Keyworth Street.

I wouldn't mind so much but a) he was totally at fault b) he fucked up my front wheel that needs a spoke replacing and truing c) my shoulder that took the impact is fucked and I haven't been able to cycle or go to gym since so am subjected to public transport and d) he didn't even stop to ask if I was ok as I was lying in the road as he and his "safety marshall" emblazoned hi-viz gilet disappeared into the distance.

Oh, and thanks to all of the cyclist cough non who stopped to ask me if I was ok as I cried at the side of the road, of a busy junction, at rush hour like the massive girl that I am.

Ho hum - am mostly grateful that it could have been worse and x-ray cleared me of a suspected broken collar bone, but fairly frustrated that the dick cyclist who caused it was totally not bothered and I've got to pay financially and otherwise for his actions. Harumph

I really hope you come away from this without a broken wrist Crafty - you've done your time injury wise!

OH POOTS. Sadface. How are you doing now?
