This morning and my mate, a little ahead, shouts 'Rider!' I look up just in time to see a guy fly off the path and go head first over the bars. His legs seemed to be sticking up in the air for quite a while as I chuckled away to myself. I was a little worried when he didn't get I for a while but by the time I got there he was up and on his bike again.
Anyway, I look forward to seeing the video, Samuri (for it was he)! ;0)

I'm just editing the video now. Mr Sparkle is even in it with an assortment of lesser individuals as supporting cast. I think I need to accept that my front tyre needs replacing. This accident can entirely be attributed to it letting go just when I needed it and nothing to do with me caning it because I had a camera on.

Excellent news! I trust the rest of your ride went to plan?

Sweat fest. Not a bad route but it just seemed hard work, especially for our Will on the SS. We were all knackered by the time we got back.
