Some 9 years ago whilst commuting into Bristol on my trusty genesis ridgeback day 01...and approaching the pedestrian underpass at Gardner/Haskin close to city centre...I decided....rather than follow the route/path around to the entrance to the underpass I would "sharp" right and jump the pavement cutting the corner!! Naturally the pavement lip thought different and threw me to the ground....I thought that could not have happened and just for good measure I came back the following day and did the same thing again (what was I trying to prove?) In all the years since I do not cut that corner...but some months ago again approaching the underpass I saw rider on the pavement astride his shiny specialized....I smiled and said I know what happend to you
