Patty can relate: she was only about 20 feet behind me when I wrecked my
motorcycle a couple of weeks ago. She sold hers about two days later and is nagging me unmercifully to sell mine. How on earth did you wreck your motorcycle and are you okay??? At least a lightweight time trial pedal cycle doesn't have the weight of a motorcycle, so it is unlikely to crush you if it lands on you. Nor can Nathan manage the speeds of a Harley Davidson on a bicycle :-) Cheers, helen s --This is an invalid email address to avoid spam-- to get correct one remove fame & fortune **$om $ --Due to financial crisis the light at the end of the tunnel is switched off-- |

DO IT! dirtylitterboxofferingstospammers wrote: He is sore :-( he was doing a cycling time trial this evening. He was off at number 13 - not a good omen. Anyhow, Vernon & I were at our regular marshalling point halfway down the course on a roundabout. All of a sudden, 13 mins after his setting off time he appeared. Good grief! This meant he was on target for a new personal best - he could beat his all time fastest 10 miler of 26 mins and 45 secs. He was going like a train for him. Alas - he came too quick into the roundabout and his inner pedal on the turn clipped the ground and *BANG* off he came. He let out an almighty scream. My heart skipped a beat or two and I *ran* to him. Got him up - nothing broken but he'd given himself an awful fright and he now shows a truly impressive amount of road rash on his shoulder, elbow, knee and, ahem... bottom... Such a shame as he was going really fast for him. He was concentrating so much on keeping his heart rate up and his cadence up (rate at which he turns the pedals) and he didn't think he was going as fast as he was. What he forgot was that by keeping his HR up and the cadence up, the speed automatically follows. He also forgot to turn properly... So any spare purrs for his dented rear, knee, elbow, shoulder and pride are most gratefully received :-) Cheers, helen s (only now calming down herself) --This is an invalid email address to avoid spam-- to get correct one remove fame & fortune **$om $ --Due to financial crisis the light at the end of the tunnel is switched off-- |
