Oooh it would have been horrible to see the accident.

I feel so very fortunate that I've not had a serious accident on the road in 40yrs of riding a bicycle. Although with the amount of numpties¹ on the roads nowadays it's probably only a matter of time. I encountered 3 yesterday who nearly took me out completely. It was only my good observation and quick reactions that kept me on the bike. It this that made me so concerned when I heard some of our group ride had never ridden on a road before.

Maintenance classes are a great idea jelli but surely riding your bike so that it needs maintenance would be a good idea first. Poor Flame being relegated to the garage with no-one to ride her. Howabout a cycling challenge to add to todays numpty² challenge? Get thee hence to the cycle path and give good old Flame an outing
