on my ride home from work in the rain I lost it on a roundabout, luckily the driver of the truck behind me was giving me plenty of space and was able to stop, even waited and double checked that I was OK so kudos to him. nice positive driver story for a change 🙂
head hit the road bloody hard with my helmet, think I wouldn’t be writing this had I not been wearing a helmet. anyway some obvious hard learned mistakes:
1. put 100psi in tyres this morning, too much if rain is expected
2. approach roundabouts slower in the rain
tyres are gator skins on a 700cc roadbike. not going to let this stop me commuting in the winter but if anyone has any tips they would be appreciated 🙂
