Hairy Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Eddie ... first rider into the 1000km mark this year
Long Wheel Base Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Had a close call this morning.Took the mtb out today as our roads were still muddy.Car almost clipped me from behind, managed to jump out the way but hit a pile of dirt next to the road.Short story, had a nice fall as I didnt unclip fast enough.Tyre debeaded and I could not get it seated again.Luckily one of my customers came past and gave me a lift to work.Be carefull out there.This was my closest shave yet!Damn Man. Glad you ok. Could have been worse.
Long Wheel Base Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Eddie ... first rider into the 1000km mark this year Respect. Well Done Eddie. @Eddie, do you do any other riding? What is your total for Jan?
EddieV Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Respect. Well Done Eddie. @Eddie, do you do any other riding? What is your total for Jan? Thank you. I did some road riding over weekends last year, but this year my weekends and off days are taken up by running. 124km running and only 1024km rides thus far for January. I'm on +-40km a week running, and +-300km a week commuting.

wildwindfr Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Thanks, all good.It is scary how quick things can happen.I luckaly looked back as I didnt even hear the car.Dont know how fast the car wad going, by the time I was back on my feet it was gone.Just a wake up call incase I needed one.
cat-i Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 I only got back Wednesday this week, so 3 days in the bag thus far. Nothing to worry about here. I'm sure we've heard this last year towards the end of the year when there was no danger about you being a contender for podium - and we all know how THAT turned out
cat-i Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Eddie ... first rider into the 1000km mark this year And sometimes a quick 10k run after the daily commute - well done

Wow glad you're ok and awake now without having to wake up in hospital ...
wildwindfr Posted January 27, 2020 Posted January 27, 2020 Glad I did not end in Hospital.Had a rather wet commute home today.May just take the car tomorrow as the road will be sludge.Photos was taken before any vehicles came by to turn the road to mud!
Long Wheel Base Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 So I will pass 200km on my way home today and the top 3 guys combined have almost 3000km......................... I am small fry.
Long Wheel Base Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 But on the plus side, I have ridden more kms to work than driven this year.
