On Wednesday 11th Oct, at 6.45 am, cycling up Sandringham dip going north, My handlebar  was hit by a car mirror  from behind.

 

I managed to stay upright, and not fall over the sidewalk or onto  traffic from behind.

The moment I was hit, I noted the car with orange signage on the back.

 

The car was stopped at the traffic light, and I almost caught up, before the change of light for him to go.

 

I noted the signage on the car was "CAUTION CYCLISTS AHEAD"  and the registration number "COACH 03" 

 

I cannot understand my emotions. I am so very  happy not to have been hurt or injured, that I cannot feel any anger.

 

But really !!! - to be hit by someone who is on the road to protect people like me???

 

He / she owes the entire cycling community an apology - And possibly more.

 

 

And a bar end mirror to me.

Heading North so that meant he was stopped at the robot by the school? Did you go report it to the police? They right there on your right.
