2008-10-08 - Rider Down (donut), Regents Park

Could be me, but no, I don't think you have got this straight.

Could it be that the driver is a doughnut and the witness is lying in the road? If the witness is lying perjury could be involved.

Let's hope the driver's in police custardy.

At what point does it say that the witness supports the driver? I read it as the witness is supporting Donut.

Just be thankful no-one got creamed. Or dusted...

In Edworld nothing is as it seems. One has to seek the reality behind the words, Grasshopper...

shit news! hope he's ok, and hope the driver has to compensate for his bike!!

love that bike donut, be well...
if drivers in the wrong, and we all know they probably are, take details and get a shiny new colnago/cinelli/extremely expensive frame as compensation....
Chin up, and see you at souths soon, and I'll buy you a pint...

i hope the big D is ok, any word?

Dunkin? That Sucks!...

.

I still am a little confused as to which one?
Shit news either way - Sadly i can't see a payout from the driver. HTF Dunut he has insurance

Donut you gotta get that driver in a hole lotta trouble.

Shit. Glad Duncans ok. Shit about his bike though. He only just got that the other week.

do you think we need to get some sort of awareness about the lcc going on here, and their wide range of benefits and insurance, membership only costs you £32 a year, and you get third party insurance cover as well, just in case you have an accident with person/vehicle and it is your fault...

donut, hope you can sort it nicely dude.

shinny, it just makes me laugh that you can't help yourself.

the police will be there in no time ;)

the police will be there in no time ;)

lol

Consider yourself lucky it wasn't a HGV, you'd have been krispy kreme'd

i got confused, happen every now and then.

there's hundreds and thousands of accidents like this

genius! :D

Hope your bikes not too crooked and same for yourself. And hope the boys in blue do their job and nail the driver!

I Donut have any dessert filled witty remarks. Will a picture do?

OOOOOUCH!!!! FUCK SHIT CUNT!!!

Ok Status report.

Donut! is ok, very sore but nothing broken. Thanks for all the funny comments, you're all well funny fuckers! ;)
Bike is totally Fucked! (and yes it's brand new, just over 2 weeks old!) Huge crease in the top tube, and the whole rear triangle is bent out of shape!
Driver=TOTAL CUNT! was screaming and shouting at me while I was still on the floor concussed wondering WTF had happened. Got a witness who also saw how he was shouting at me (he's on my side Ed) called the police coz he was basically threatening to smash my face in for scratching his car, when he ran into ME!

What to do now. Bike is (annoyingly) not insured, found out that the car was hired, and he was just some wide boy fronting in his Jag! Wanker!

Any ideas of what to do now would be great, shouldn't be a problem claiming coz it wasn't my fault . . . I may be wrong!

Thanks Murtle for posting this, I'm hoping a glass of wine and big spliff will take some of the pain away!!

I'm really annoyed that my frame folded so easily, expected it to be stronger! GRRRR!!

Oh and to put the Icing on the errr . . . Donut! he said to me, and I quote:

"You're lucky I wasn't a fucking HGV mate, or you'd be fucking dead!" . . . I guess our awareness campaign is working! ;)

Peas

Check out roxy's excellent thread in the private section search for "what do do in case of an accident"

Fuck dude...

Glad you're OK

It's not surprising your bike folded under a ton of Jag! Happy to hear that you didn't...

Get well soon

Quote of the year. Get well soon mate; check Roxy's thread for advice, covers most things I think. Tommy beat me to it.

A hire car is good. The hire company will have insurance. Contact the hire company.

If you have problems, there are lawyers who will handle this type of case on a no win no fee basis. PM me and I will give you some recommendations.

Do you have more than one witnesses?
