the reluctant cyclist

I was riding home last night and as I was going under the five ways island in birmingham - using the shared cycle paths - another cyclist came tearing down the path coming straight at me!
He was going far too fast and I had to swerve to avoid him...
... this next bit's my own fault ...
I swerved a bit too far on a new, unfamiliar bike with rubbish tyres and the bike slipped out from under me and I was off!
Mr Too Fast looked back and saw me on the floor but just cycled on!
Result is that I now look like a 6 year old with two grazed knees!!!!
Not much to write home about but how rude not to even stop and make sure I was okay?
Note to self - get new, better tyres!!!!
