Just sitting here waiting to be picked up by Mrs SR, as I have had an 'off'. Turning off one paved path onto a cobbled section, the bike shot out from under me like I was on ice.
Apparently, we have just enough rain to bring the slime to the surface, but not enough to wash it away.
Whatever the case, my elbow hurts. 🙁
consider yourself no better than Cancellara 😐
(edit) Hang on, weren't you going to ride with molgrips? Did he leave you grovelling on the cobbles and ride off laughing?
Caught me out a couple of years ago too; as I flew toward the ground it seemed like a good a time as any to high five the pavement, except it wasn't and result was painful swollen thumb for however long it was.
Jon Bon Jovi discovered this ~30 years ago and decided to make it the title of an album! 😆
Does this require a bike forum to get this info out in the open though...?
Try a therapist.
Christ fella! Is there [b]anything[/b] that doesn't warrant a new thread from you?
Double post. See edited one, below.

Weird response. As, I might add, is the one above it.
Over the years I have been on here, we have discussed everything from religion to video games to vehicles to wood burners to bike parts.
I had a fall, was sitting with my phone waiting to be picked up, and thought my situation would either elicit a smile or grimace of recognition seeing as we have all likely been in the same situation at one time or another.
Is it so odd that I might have started a bit of banter about it?
I for one am glad you reported this incident, BBC breaking news have completely missed it!
Ignore them
Some folk start threads some dont - I almost never start them
If you dont want to read dont - its not like the thread title didn't give it away
Get well soon OP
He still read your thread though 🙂
You carry on SR. Some good discussions and comedy (joe cocker) come from your threads.
Hope the damage is nothing serious.
