Magnatom down but fortunately OK

[Glow worm]

Magnatom, formerly of this parish has been knocked off. He's OK (but not the bike). More on his blog here

Yeah I saw that on FB - seems to be ok but his bike is not, thankfully the driver took responsibility. Bound to be a bit shaken by it all the same.

Glad he's OK.
Not much you can do about that, when the driver just nudges you from behind.
I've seen it happen to cars and bikes.

I can't see the video, but I bet he let out one of his girly screams!!

Seriously though, glad he's ok!

Poor observation skills from the driver i'd say, i.e. he had his eyes shut.

What happened? Hope he's ok.

(I don't read peoples blogs I don't subscribe to)

edit: just seen Bebbo's post above about a nudge from behind.

For some reason the video won't show for me, but I'm glad he's OK.

What happened?

it was the classic driver watching for a gap on the roundabout and not if the road ahead was clear to proceed.

Did he also squeal

'Have you read Cyclecraft?!'

At the driver??


Sorry, I jest, I know, but it must have been a brown trouser moment and no mistake!!

 

[Origamist]

Not much you can do in those situations. Glad he's OK.

It was also good to see that at least two other people stopped to see if he was OK, if he needed their details etc.

His bike is write-off. Major damage, just behind the bottom bracket.
