by a left hooker!!
I was in a cycle lane on a primary road..coming upto a junction with lights for a left turn into a secondary road..kept back and checked the cars that were indicating to turn left..the first two were.
lights changed and off I went..upto about 19mph and staying back of the first two cars..only then the third car decides to turn left!!..I had no where to go apart into the side of her car..I was also clipped in..I screamed out but went down like a sack of spuds!!
she dragged me down the road for a bit..very grazed arse with a hole in the shorts..bike has the bar tape has disintigrated on the rhs..and the bar end has popped out..need to bent the ends back to get it back in..slightly closed..oh and the seat went out of alinement.
dunno if it was shock on my part..but i just got up and a little go at here for not using her mirror..and signalling very late and rode off!!
