The_Break Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Maybe Cyclesure should look into pram insurance as well...
Older Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Just heard from my Wife that my son was in a crash. Appenrently a couple were crossing the road with a pram or carrycot' date=' when the cyclists came down the road.  Grabbed the kid and left the carrycot/pram in the middle of the road, Wayne hit it at speed and totalled the rear Derailleur and one of his STI's. Now knowing cyclesure it is going to take a week or two to fix and the junior tour is in two weeks. Now my argument is this how f*cken stupid must you be to leave a cot in the road with 700 cyclists coming down the road.  And he is doing the junior tour luckily not broken anything[/quote']  Ag nee wat sammajoor, ek is seker die ouers is net so bekommerd gewees oor hulle kind soos jy is oor joune (jy moontlik oor die junior tour, hulle oor hulle kind se lewe).  Indien jou kind in die moeilikheid is neem instink oor en ek is 100% seker hulle het gedink dit is wat nodig was om hulle kind se veiligheid te verseker. L2climb2008-03-10 13:50:28
Older Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 En ek bedoel nie sy was reg indien sy nalatig was om voor hulle in te stap nie, net dat sy volgens haar die beste besluit geneem het om die kind uit die pram te haal.
MintSauce Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 Surely it would have been quicker and easier to just push/pull the pram out the road...?  Â
FanieFiets Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 ek is seker cyclesure of die cyclists wat skade gely het kan haar sue. Â Kom ons se sy het met haar kar in aankomende verkeer ingery. Toe sy die karre sien aankom haar kind gryp hardloop en die kar net daar los. Daar is 'n moerse ongeluk. Sy sal verseker verantwoordelik gehou word. Â Hoekom is hierdie anders? Â

Hoekom is hierdie anders?  Die enigste probleem is waar kry jy hulle in die hande daar is nie n reg nr vir 'n pram nie. Maak dit bietjie moeilik
slowpoke Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 if they have these idiot's details then yes, they can (and most likely will) be held liable.

Johnny B Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 I was one of the unforetunate guys that came down in the crash...The only thing this idiot said , was " sorry guys" !!! I mean seriously what will saying sorry help anyway. We were doing approx : 50km/h ... IDIOT !!!!
Johnny B Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 For some reason my bike was ok, luckily i rode my Shimano wheels...I`m ok , Elbow are swollen and full of Burns as well as my knee, and my ribs are bruised ....i was actually very lucky
Sammajoor Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 I was one of the unforetunate guys that came down in the crash...The only thing this idiot said ' date=' was " sorry guys" !!! I mean seriously what will saying sorry help anyway. We were doing approx : 50km/h ...  IDIOT !!!![/quote']  How much damage to your bike , my son was also in that crash, Wayne Mr Price Junior on a grey Specialized, STI's are toast, derailleur bent and cranks scratched  NOT GOOD
Johnny B Posted March 12, 2008 Posted March 12, 2008 My bike was fine, it landed on the guys on the ground(i think....).Can`t say the same for me, i landed far away from them eventually.... I rode in the Didate kit, Red Trek
