Well I just got knocked off a pushbike by some twat in a car.
It's actually my mates bike, I'm only borrowing it till my CBR is back on the road.
Anyway, one minute I'm pootling through town to go back to work, next minute I'm lying on the tarmac in the middle of a busy junction!!! Was very unsettling, first time I've had summit like that happen.
I'm fine apart from a couple of bruises and grubby trousers, the bike looks like it's just got a cracked pedal (it took the brunt and spun the back end round and down).
I've got the blokes details, he was very concerned etc BUT was very clever not to admit fault (ie. he didn't say 'sorry' or 'i didn't see you', he just said 'i don't know what happened there' then tried to blame a bus!!!)
I also have a witness's details, so gonna get the bike checked over first off. Just another case of car driver not being aware of other road users...same old story
Just glad I wasn't on the CBR!!! I'd have been furious.
