Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

Picture the scene. It's a cold, grey morning in the Southside of Glasgow. One handsome, young chap is cycling along on his way to work. Unlike the Daily Mail stereotype of cyclists he is wearing multiple bits of Hi-Viz clothing, has a bike in full working order with lights etc all on and hasn't jumped every red light he has come to on his journey.

He is making his way through a roundabout thinking "excellent, almost there. What a lovely morning for a bike ride" when an Audi driver clearly decides to punish him for daring to be on the road without paying road tax by pulling out in front of him leaving him just enough time to think.

"ooh bugger, this is going to hurt"

Before being transported from a nice comfy saddle to the cold wet ground via the Audis bonnet and windscreen. End result was the hero of the story gets an ambulance, traffic chaos at rush hour, articles of clothing being cut off and all I got out of it was some entonox and morphine plus a spinal board and umpteen x rays and CT scans.
