Fell off my bike again yesterday, and lacerated three finger tips and bled, a lot.
Thought I had cleaned the wounds but it looks like I have some grit in one of them!
I heard that you are something of an expert with a scalpel so wondering if you could deal with it.
The thing is I am not the greatest fan of pain so might need anesthetizing somehow (a bottle of "Southern Comfort" would be good)!

I was thinking exactly the same thing as Leopard
 Hope you're ok now, Aunty |

Thanks M_D,
My finger ends are so sore that I'm having to type with just one finger on my right hand. Fortunately I seem to be a quick healer, probably due to the ABV of my blood. It's crazy that you don't have to fall far to get hurt, and the side of my helmet stopped my face hitting the deck! Wouldn't fancy coming off when I was up to speed.  |

I couldn't help but laugh when i read "my helmet stopped my face hitting the deck". I'm so infantile.

So...he was wearing the helmet on his face....may I suggest this is where you were going wrong, AP.
|

By:
ya know what they say, big helmet...big feet.

By:
....in the key cutting gaff?
|

By:
Actually Leopard, it would make sense for pro cyclists to wear something like a cricket, or American football style helmet!
At least one person who was seriously killed, a year or two back, might still be here today! |

By:
That would mean 1 more cyclist on the road ?

If you are of a nervous disposition please look away now.....

have you considered getting a bus pass?
|

By:
Well that's not in the best taste Leopard.
This was a Belgian competitor in Giro d'Italia 2011 |

Have you traveled on a service bus recently? Until 2011 I hadn't been on a service bus since 1973! That was only because I was with my mum, and little nephew, and we had walked on the prom and didn't fancy walking back. Even that was a one off, as I had been driving since '63 ( Incidentally we didn't pay). Went to "Illuminate York" in 2011 and we didn't want to take two cars into the city, as we knew it would be busy. What a ******* horrible experience was that, sitting with the great unwashed, and coming back I was almost sick and seriously considering getting off and walking. |

When wearing my cycling shorts, people have said I look quite outstanding!

Surprisingly though it may seem, I have one! |

Just saw 2 quads buzz through Ealing.....bl**dy noisey.....must be illegal

depends which bus you get. the one i get is ok. double decker, usually plenty of room up top. the only time theres any unsavouryness (is that word??) is when this set of lads get on with cans of beer. rare occurrence though. i wouldnt get on a bus when schools chucking out though.
|
|
By:
im being selective though. the bus i get goes through no bad areas. i dont even like getting on the buses that go down eccy road, bit too rough for me. i always walk if im going that way. buses are like those ones you seen india with people sitting on the roof its that full!
 |
|
By:
you should try mine ....
15 different ethnicities all jibbbering away on mobile phones in a different language .. you wouldn't last 5 minutes  |

By:
maybe not. i got the bus in wembley the other year the night after a gig, going to umm i dunno now maybe euston station, went upstairs and was pretty stunned to see two police officers sat on the back seat!
 i thought wtf have i just done here, maybe i shudda used the tube |
|
By:
the day after the gig i meant. it was daytime. about 11am

No double deckers in York except for the tour buses.
We took the "Park & Ride" from "McArthur Glen". Wasn't too bad going in as it was still light and the road is straight. Coming back in pitch black and only see reflections of the insude of the bus. The thing was throwing me all over the place and I only realised, after almost a quarter of an hour, we were back where we started! The woman in front smelt like a cross between a urinal and a wet dog. Screaming kids that should have been in bed hours ago. No way would I go to the upper deck as that clearly exaggerates all of the swaying etc. Eldest daughter is in Australia and has been driving for more than twenty years in the UK. None of her friends have cars nor does she. The bus services are clean and regular, as are the ferries, and if she leaves Sydney she flies. |

i see. i am a bit sheltered, my bus is ok. just unreliable as fook. every 8-10 minutes it says, but you can expect to wait 30-40 minutes most of the time. then about 5 come at once. hopeless if youre running to a schedule.

By:
i think mine are every 6 minutes ......... and every bus is the same

not that i use them .. i'd rather overdose by injecting heroine to my scrotum
