Thankfully nothing to do with yet another sad story of the demise of another fellow cyclist.....
Today, I was riding along minding my own business, full of the joys of summer, when I received a sudden lukewarm shower over my head to dampen my day.
Turns out that the lorry driver who was parked up in a layby to my left had decided to empty the slops of his cup of tea out of the window!
Immediate reaction was one of "do you really think that you'll retrieve this Zefal pump from where I am going to park it", but on looking back, he was in fits of laughter, in a nice, non aggressive sort of way.
Went back for a chat and had a word and he reassured me that he had indeed checked his mirrors, but saw nothing, due to his blindspots.
Cheery wave and off we went,,,,,
But it did leave me thanking my lucky stars that it had only has been a drenching from a cold cup of tea.
