    aside(1): oh, despite a nice show of sparks, an already crashed 7R
    looks, well, no different when you crash it, and starts first time
    once you pick it up.

    aside(2): oooh, those eastern-European-style head-scarves don't half
    take a nasty blood stain - that's going to scar if you pick at it,
    love.

    aside(3): need cow-catcher/roo-bars

    aside(4): offering me an assortment of non-branded condoms and "lucky
    heather" doesn't quite hit the spot in terms of "calm down
    Mr.Angry-just-been-knocked-off-bike-by-stupid-ped" ness.

    aside(5): must dig out old Amiga A1200, and practice on "Road Rage".



    Oh, I love commuting in London in the dark.

    You weren't passing a stationary truck on a zebra when this happened then?[1]

    would you give that one a rest? You weren't there, and have maybe
    misunderstood the dubiousness of the situation :)
    oh well, yes, the whole thing took place with me doing less than
    15mph. In actual fact, though it's hard to explain, if *I* hadn't hit
    her, she might have been a goner - traffic doing 10mph-ish on my side
    of the road, with free-moving cars/vans doing 30-40 ish oncoming - I
    was filtering past on my side, at about 15mph or so - she basically
    ran off the pavement, through a gap in the traffic, straight into my
    path - really, I think if I hadn't collected her/ended up in a pile of
    darsy/bike/scarf-woman, she'd have run into the path of a transit van
    coming the other way.

  4. I once witnessed an almost identical sort of crash - Holloway one way
    heading towards Finsbury Park (Hornsey Rd junction). Scooter in front
    filtering in far right lane. Woman and child step out from kerb and
    walk through stationary traffic including in front of large lorry - it
    becomes all too obvious she is about to walk into the scooter. I beep
    horn from behind but no one takes any notice. Pedestrians and scooter
    collect each other into a heap. The scooter chap never stood a chance as
    he never had an opportunity to see her step out nor was he able to see
    her final steps as she marched out from in front of said lorry. Just as
    well the scooter was going about 10 mph and no faster.

    I stayed behind as a witness to vouch for the scooter rider and say how
    stupid the woman had been.

    I wish there were more like you about. Luckily, last collision with a car I
    had, when I rang her insco (direct line bless 'em[1]) to check she'd reported
    it they said 'Oh no, not her *again*' :)

    Last one that stepped in front of me spoke no English (backed up by the
    ambulance chasers) then chanced his arm by calling said ambulance
    chasers....
    If you find item 3, let me know?

    This headscarf ... wasn't concealing any distinguishing features, was
    it?

    From the muddled heap in the road Darsy's voice called out "What shall I
    do?"

    and from the gathering crowd came the response

    "**** it - while it's still hot"

    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, darsy
    Didn't look at you sort of cross-eyed afterwards did she?

    She did?

    Ooh, evil eye.

    You're fucked.

    Leave me the R65LS in your will, I'll sort the fucker out.

    Actually, on further reflection, I reckon she's got a pretty good case
    for compensation here.

    I mean, you're riding a bike with known iffy brakes, right?
