First little smash...

Very little! Laughing

And the only thing smashed was the other bloke's front mudguard.

Traffic was mental today cos of the tube strike. As I was turning right into work I didn't see a scooter pelting down the line of traffic (undertaking, not filtering). Braked in time for him to only hit my front wheel - don't think he hit the disc. No one hit the ground, no bikes hit the ground. Definitely done something to my wrist though.

We pulled over, had a look at each bike, his seemed the worse off but he was happy to leave it. Bit of his fault, bit of mine. We shook hands, smiles all round, and off we went.

If only all accidents would work out like that...

Nice, seems pretty decent.

I had something similar where a woman pulled out on me while I was filtering, rammed me basically in the thigh, I wobbled a bit and pulled over, no damage to either party, it was nice..

Same deal really, I shouldn't have been filtering past a junction really but she didn't really look, either..

Call me Mr Cynical but keep an eye out for any letters from your insurance company dropping on the door mat.

Hopefully he doesn't change his mind and is a decent person.

Cheers

The tube strike does seem to be bringing out some particularly 'special' riding - I think you've got folks digging out the two wheeler cos they can't get the train.

Of course I've skillfully timed two trips to the west end to happen during the greedy bastard's 3 day holiday. Rolling Eyes

I know the Sprint could easily be mistaken for a London bus but come on, some of the assholes last night were taking the piss.

Make that "four"-wheeler.
I'm still rubbing my eyes in disbelief from seeing a twat trying to filter on a quad bike this morning.
