On Sunday (September 18) afternoon I was riding my bicycle along Ridge Road when a raised lip between the tar seal and the concrete lane caused me to crash quite heavily.
Just in case they read this, I would like to thank some people in a car and on a motorbike who stopped and made sure I was in one piece.
A lady from the car even phoned for an ambulance but I assured her that I was fit enough to ride the 2km home. Suffice to say I got home safely and am now covered in road rash and feeling a bit sore. Luckily the concussion test is all clear so far.
My bicycle will also need some TLC. Good to see that there are still some caring folks out there – many thanks.
