Subject: I think I've offended the cycling gods This is the worst run of bad luck that I've had on the bike. Saturday, chased by some birds, they dive bombing my helmet. On the ride home ran over a piece of metal on the road, double puncture, walk the bike 4 km's home. Sunday, on the ride home another double puncture, glass this time. Walk the bike 2 kms home. Monday, up to the LBS, two new tyres, tubes etc. Tuesday morning at the end of a 50 km ride, unclip right side at the traffic lights, fall on to my leftside, in front of all the other riders in my group, very funny. To make matters worse this was a group of people I have never ridden with, I think they were really impressed with my cycling skills. 15 Mins down the road, turn my head to check for traffic, front wheel hits some thing, end up hitting the road on my right side at about 30 km an hour. I just hope the cycling gods have finished with me. May have to start carrying to tubes instead of one. Edited by mike9521 2006-09-11 7:17 PM
