I watch my mirror carefully
I watch my mirror carefully and am ready to bail.
Those T-handles are interesting what make are they?Eklind. I think I bought them from Menard’s, a US chain of big box hardware stores. Fairly inexpensive and they’ve taken some abuse well.
Not the best quality footage.Low speed impact though
Post was lit up but not wearing high-vis, etc. Plus what’s it doing in the middle of the road?
Atrocious cyclist behaviour at 0:34.

I do like the idea of a Hindu taking top office on Diwali, though as that puts a nice spin on it. (Got my covid booster in a Hindu temple down the road – I do like their religious imagery though I couldn’t tell you who all the gods are)
I use a vacuum insulated
I use a vacuum insulated Klean Kanteen in my King Iris cage. It’s a little tighter than my other bottles, but it works. I mostly use it for summer rides, to have nice cold water even after a couple of hours out at 35 °C.

I’m 51. I find I get restless legs if I take a couple of days off. No other issues yet.
Hexes and hexes and hexes,
Hexes and hexes and hexes, plus a couple of Torx. I find myself using the T handles the most just because they’re easiest to get out.

Good thing it wasn’t a cyclist with high pressure tyres. They’d have sunk to the centre of the earth!

So someone’s going to crash into the building because they didn’t know there was a turn there?! I could almost understand going down the driveway, but the reason not to drive where the building is, is that there’s a building there, in front of you, visible, and definitely not a road. Roads are seldom vertical.
Another resident who did not wish to be named said: “I didn’t know there was an accident, I hope everyone is alright.”Great reporting, interviewing someone who knows nothing about the incident. They might as well have interviewed someone in Australia.

Those bollards need sacking.Whoever installed them needs sacking. Those bollards are easily capable of stopping that car when installed properly. It looks like someone took a shortcut and just sank them into soil below the thin pavers, instead of a significant mass of concrete.

[quote=Jogle][b]CCTV shows moment vehicle almost flipped after smashing into parked car and leaving scene[/b] I’ve read the comments at the bottom and it seems to be that it isn’t the fault of the driver; the parked car is to blame for being parked on the wrong side of the road. I must also point out that I can’t see that the parked car was wearing hi-viz or a helmet, they were just asking for trouble if you ask me! https://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/teesside-news/cctv-shows-moment-vehicle-almost-25067183%5B/quote%5D
The struck car did not appear to have been left with its parking brake on.
