It's good for you health you know. Perfect form of carbon-friendly transport. My employer even (apparently) offers a cycle mileage rate.

Except today when I got to my meeting I couldn't shake hands because my right palm was covered in blood.

I was cycling merrily across campus, it was a little wet but I was enjoying getting another set of clothes covered in mud after yesterday's experiences - and then what I thought was a small puddle turned out to be a pothole. In went the front wheel... where it stopped. Unfortunately it didn't communicate it's change in velocity to the frame, the rider or the back wheel.

So over I went, careering forward on my shins and hands, leaving blood and skin in my wake.

Fortunately the NHS wasn't needed this time and the nice man at the Train station let me wash up and gave me some tissue...

Still - Slimelight confirmed for tomorrow. I wonder if they've put in any lights since I shot SBA et all there in 2004?

What, no cute blonde doctor this time?

Ripped off!

(then again, no risk of MRSA exposure either, so I guess it evens out)

If I see you as Slimes I'll introduce myself.

I hope your string of accidents stops soon... :o/

I shall no doubt bump into you tomorrow, then but I'll be leaving my camera at home. Slimes isn't exactly know for its lights...
