Rode past medics treating a seriously injured guy this morning.
Didn't look to be head injury thankfully, as his bald head seemed injury - free. Although you can't tell...

He seemed to be "one of us" - a proper roadie with lovely Airbourne Campag equipped. I don't know what happened- from the road position it seemed that he was travelling S and a car came across him to get to the N Circular slip road.

Road: 95 Trek 5500 -Look 695 Aerolight eTap - Boardman TTe eTap

Offroad: Pace RC200 - Dawes Kickback 2 tandem - Tricross - Boardman CXR9.8 - Ridley x-fire

    It was on the A1000 - opposite Squires Lane - just as you are about to pass over the N Circular from the North.
