Cycling (Commute) 55:00 [3]
It's a very small world....
Took the narrow overpass corner just before the observatory a tad tight, and met another rider around the corner who was a tad wide. Head-on collision and over the bars - other rider stayed up.
Suggested from the ground to the other rider that they might consider keeping left, with a couple of 'f' words thrown in for good measure. Suspect I knew that id probably cut the corner a bit, but hard not to let off steam from down on the ground.
When I got up, discovered that Id run head-on in to Orla. Felt rather guilty about the expletives, so stopped to chat for a bit and some apologising. Im claiming the 3 second defence - anything said within 3 seconds of hitting concrete doesnt count.
Fortunate to have backpack and baggy-shorts on to soften landing. Katrin lucky that I valiantly threw myself between the ground and her new commuter.
