I got knocked off day before yesterday.
I was going down the inside while all the cars are waiting to turn right so some nobber trys to pull up onto the pavement to bomb down the inside. Cue him catching my backwheel and sending me to the floor. Had it been a second earlier id have been on the bonnet.
Anyway, Im not injured apart from a bruised arse but i get up (Im on the rat bake) so i picked up the bike and then threw it to the floor (dont know why i did that?) walk over to the car, clink (the central locking has been locked) Im ragin at the driver by this point, bzzzzzzzzzz (the windows are going up). In my final point of rage I boot the door with my shoe, the cleat scratches it. This is where the red haze depletes. The bloke looks at me in disbelief and im thinking, oh fuck thats going to cost a bit. Back on ther bike and cant be caught in traffic.
Funny thing is I saw the guy in a cue of traffic going from greenwich out to charlton yesterday and it really is a bit of a nasty scratch. He recognised me but didnt react. Numpty.
Hope your hand gets well soon anyways.
