getting quite good at this

[dan_bo]

Knocked off twice in one day.

riding to work this morning-bit dozy on a quiet road checking my chain as I was going along-rode into a massive pickup. My fault-no damage but offered my details to the driver. Pillock.

riding home got right hooked by a focus turning right coming towards me. Big dent in wing. Bit sore knee and shagged back wheel. Got details and a helpful witness.

Ho hum.

 

[dan_bo]

Bad luck mate.I wouldn't say the first one was a knock off though,more of a collision?

This is no time for splitting hairs. This is a time for pointing, laughing and rinsing myself down with Veltins.

 

[dan_bo]

Sorry but I wouldn't laugh at someone's misfortune.

Am I ok to laugh at my own?

 

[fossyant]

Get some vin rouge down ya.

 

[fossyant]

Wasn't the Velocity's that got pringled was it.

Nah worse. Me last open pro ceramic.



Never mind.

 

[fossyant]

Oh ship. Impossible to get ceramics now!

 

[fossyant]

Bump the claim for a new wheel set given how expensive the ceramics were. Top end DT Swiss rims might just match.

I thought the same. Poor sod was only taking his kids for KFC as well.

gave him the option........

Crap happens and they are top end rim. You can't have mismatching wheels, so will need new hand builts even if the hubs can be sorted.

Don't feel sorry for him. Thank god you are OK. Bet those thighs of yours made a mess of the wing.

An old clubmate of mine got hit head on by someone years back out near Adlington. Big trackie lad. He busted his leg badly, but his leg bent the windscreen pillar of the car.

Eventful ride Dan, glad you're ok, poor car must be a right-off

 

[Pat "5mph"]

At least your sense of humor is not damaged

 

[dan_bo]

Einer shagged focus wing.

 

[fossyant]

Can I double like. That's fubar.

No 1 priority @dan_bo is that you're still with us.
