Yah Sunday group ride time and a chance to get out on the bike and stretch those legs!. Got to learn a frew more local loops with the odd hill or two :) thanks to a hockey crazed sunday rider.
This week our life flashed in front or our eyes as we came within centemetres of either flying over the top of the van or going straight thru it! We were gunning it on a straight piece of road as we trying to catch the green light, some nuffy in a van decided to turn left into a drive way cutting in front of us ... &^#@*&& !!!! ... thank whoever that our top speed was not so speedy and we managed to slam brakes and swerve to miss the beep, beep. Lucky for him cos our bikes would have been worth more than his van so he would have been up for a pretty penny, not to mention the hospital bills !!!
Despite the weather forcast showing rain with thunder and lighting in the afternoon, it was a pleasant day, great for a quick 2.5 hours.
Yeah - pretty happy with the fact it was a near miss not an actual kerthump and connection with a van. Still - it reminds you about how incredibly careful you need to be on the roads when there are oblivious motorists around. You got out there - great job!!!!!
