Near Death This Morning

C+ thread?

what kind of response were you looking for with that comment? do you want everyone to stop describing near misses and start drooling over pink deep v's...or to be more LFGSS we could just call each other cunts and give out reps.

I hear you aidan.wasn't really expecting a response, more of a question. Is this really about near death experiences or near misses? These posts pale into insignificance when you read and hear about what happened to corny, fiddy, Mary etc.more than happy to discuss over a beer...

I'm no doctor but I reckon a scaffolding pole to the windpipe at about 20mph is quite near death. You're right, there have been and will be far closer brushes with the dude in the black dressing gown. It's just that yesterday genuinely felt like idiot day. On the way back a motorbike was right up my arse then randomly started swearing at me, peds were jumping out all over the place and a cabby called me a cunt (he has a point).

I was a bit hungover this morning...I was a bit grumpy.

Some dodgy fuckwit overtook me this morning in the middle of a box junction while I was moving out to turn right (deliberately riding wide because it's not safe to overtake). Obviously he got stuck at the lights a hundred yards on, and gave me all that road tax shite when I rode past.

I took the lane for my own safety but while I was building up to speed, he actually undertook me by driving onto the side road and squeezing back in! Holy fuck, my eyes nearly popped out of my head!

Luckily I had calmed down by the time I caught him at the next set of lights and I sailed past with a cheery wave (and called him a cunt, obviously). If I had bigger balls I would have taken his mirror off on the way by, but I have to ride the same road at the same time every day..

And I thought only London riders had to worry about the crazies!

Something similar happened to me in work yesterday, i was out in the center controlling the lane so i could cross, indicated that i was turning right and this numpty blasts up my right hand side overtaking me... a fuse blew, various linguistic subtleties were exchanged at the lights (i felt the need to educate the fu**wit) and we went on... now two hours later i find his mint vintage mark one cortina parked on a quiet street not far from where the gobshite had perpetrated vehicular moronicy... Are Mark I Cortina mirrors hard to find on the open market ?

just leave a note under wipers saying you know where he lives ;)
