Looked rather nasty, happened about a minute before I rolled up. Black people carrier coming out of the side road near the car repairers ploughed into a few bikes on CS7. One guy picking his bike up but looked ok (said he was) the other guy took a pasting and had a bit of road rash on his face. :shock:

Lots of other bikes stopped up to help and the driver was helping the guy to the side of the path. From the state of the front wheel on the 2nd bike it took quite a smash. Clipping one guy you didn't see along there is bad but driving into a few of them i can't work out how he did it. :roll:

Hope everyone involved ok.

#5 Peugeot Grand Tourer (Tandem)

    Sorry to hear that but not surprised, cyclists and cars both seem to think they have right of way along there. I used to use it regularly but I'll take Jamaica Rd every time now.
