Cyclist down R27 past Black river in Paarden Island

[Cacey]

Drove past scene and do not have details but did not look good. Hope he makes a speedy recovery

[bj horn]

Not good.Hope for the best.Wide shoulder in that area.

Be careful out there

Hope the cyclist is ok & has a Speedy recovery.

 

I can already see this is going to cause some waves as there is a Bikelane\path less than 100 meters away. We are simply forced to put our lives in danger to avoid the bike path because of the attacks & muggings there.

Hey cfcjim,

 

Glad to hear that you are okay. I was taken down by a car in almost the same spot a few years ago. Hope you recover soon.

yes, glad u ok.

 

but what happened? which way were you riding?

[cfcjim]

Yes, my bike is fine. It is with the kind geezer.

 

I tucked the font end on some sand which had blown onto the shoulder (apparently). I then smacked my head breaking my lid in two places, falling into the carriageway in the process.

A very kind felliow then stopped the traffic in the left hand lane, and revived me whilst calling an ambulance.

The ambulance crew were fantastic and probably saved my life.

I couldn’t remember what day of the week it was and only when my partner came to see me at the hospital did I remember I was on leave.

 

Concussion: it’s. A bit weird...

Best of luck in recovering well enough to get back on the bike soon.
