LFGSS has a postcount and a 24 hour delay, though

I still can't post a new thread there...

her_welshness · « **Reply #26 on:** 28 May, 2010, 05:02:21 pm »

Would you like me to stick this on the Lewisham & Greenwich parish e-lists Clarion?

clarion · « **Reply #27 on:** 28 May, 2010, 05:10:36 pm »

That'd be helpful. Lots of folk rode by, and many of them were concerned to help, but maybe just too scared to get involved. Unlikely to be too many from Lewisham or Greenwich way on that route, but it's worth a try. If anyone has a group with a Lambeth circulation, that might be a good idea, too.

Speshact · « **Reply #28 on:** 28 May, 2010, 05:19:06 pm »

I've posted to Lambeth Cyclists Yahoo Group.

Thanks.

her_welshness · « **Reply #30 on:** 28 May, 2010, 05:34:25 pm »

Sent to Lewisham and Greenwich parish groups.

ScumoftheRoad - are you able to punt this up on Southwark?

Domestique · « **Reply #31 on:** 28 May, 2010, 05:39:52 pm »

Hope you are feeling a little better Clarion. I can only imagine how you are feeling. At least its a long weekend to help you recover.
Sadly I am now seriously considering a vidcam of some description, just in case I am involved in something like this

dkahn400 · « **Reply #32 on:** 28 May, 2010, 05:40:03 pm »

Sorry to hear about this, Clarion. That's appalling. I hope you're soon feeling better and really hope the driver can be traced.

Gandalf · « **Reply #33 on:** 28 May, 2010, 06:06:24 pm »

Only just read this, sorry to hear about it. I hope the git gets caught and your confidence isn't too dented. That's a horrible stretch along there, I don't even lke doing it in the van.

Sounds like a right nutter.

ktcita · « **Reply #34 on:** 28 May, 2010, 06:14:35 pm »

I'm very sad to hear that you were hit. I'll ask around my other cycling friends to find out if they saw anything this morning.

Do black cabbies get bicycle awareness training?

ScumOfTheRoad · « **Reply #35 on:** 28 May, 2010, 06:27:51 pm »

Just put this on Southwark elist.

Charlotte · « **Reply #36 on:** 28 May, 2010, 06:30:25 pm »

Oh cock

Just posted on LFGSS for you:

Appeal for witnesses - Oval Junction A3 at 0815 on Fri 28th May - London Fixed-gear and Single-speed

Charlotte just beat me to LFGSS- poor old you, Clarion. No excuse for that kind of behaviour from anyone let alone a cabbie. Make sure you get lots of hot tea, chocolate biscuits (sugar for the shock you understand) and TLC.

Clarion says thanks.

Séamas M. · « **Reply #39 on:** 28 May, 2010, 09:06:04 pm »

I've just seen this (thanks to Charlotte's Tweet). Hope you can get back to normal soon Clarion. Also hope the bar-steward gets nailed.

Gattopardo · « **Reply #40 on:** 28 May, 2010, 09:16:53 pm »

Sorry to hear that clarion.

I hope the guy gets caught and gets help as that is not acceptable behaviour in any society.

Heal quickly.

tonycollinet · « **Reply #41 on:** 28 May, 2010, 10:39:55 pm »

I'll just add:

a Fook Me!
a hope yer feelin' better.
and a hope they nail the bastard. With six inch nails. Rusty Ones. Preferably barbed. Ideally glowing cherry red. Dipped in curare. Through the nads!

In that order.

PS - Item 1: Exclamation, not invitation!

Only just seen this....Big Hugs mate....

Now if you'd only been born somewhere civilised like Lancashire you could have used your skills at Ecky Thump to wreak righteous vengeance

Aidan · « **Reply #43 on:** 29 May, 2010, 07:16:41 am »

OMG I hope the bikes alright!!!!!

Seriously, sounds like a bad do, hope you find some witnesses and he gets exactly what he deserves , or worse.
Dont let it get to you , theres some real knobheads out there

Tim Hall · « **Reply #44 on:** 29 May, 2010, 10:19:00 am »

Bollocks. Log on this morning and find this.

Feeling a bit recovered this morning I trust.

If only you had a Loving Butterfly to soothe you.

Ah, you have. Good stuff.

Adrian · « **Reply #45 on:** 29 May, 2010, 10:33:46 am »

That is appalling Clarion. As a society we really should face up to the idea that some people are just temperamentally unsuited to have control of dangerous equipment and, with suitable regret, not allow them ever to have that control.

Clare · « **Reply #46 on:** 29 May, 2010, 10:37:54 am »

Eeeeek, how horrible Clarion, I hope the bastard gets well and truly nailed.

I agree with you completely.

Hope clarion is better today.

Just seen this. Blimey, what a wazzock. It seems that Nutter Magnet of yours is still in full working order.

Hope the tender attentions of the lovely Butterfly have helped. Good luck in your pursuit of justice - there's no way this twunt should be driving anything, let alone a black cab.

mattc · « **Reply #49 on:** 29 May, 2010, 02:05:54 pm »

Glad you're OK Clarion.

Brace yourself for a complete lack of justice - sometimes nutters just get away with stuff, can't be helped.

Get those Zen manuals ready
