Be careful riding in the dark!

Firstly, hope you mate gets well soon.
Secondly, the blog is very hard to read especially the BLUE bits
Thirdly, not sure that 'improved both his and his bikes visibility. ' would have helped in this case and, as you said he was lit up correctly.
Fourthly, look where you are going

Top Tip: look where you're going.

Well said sir, and you prove it is quite unneccessary to write a multi coloured blog with spelling mistakes to get that important message over to your readers.

 

[Bryony]

Why would you not look where you're going day or night, familiar road or unfamiliar road?? Or am I missing the point here??

And another thing ... it isn't really the done thing to pop up on other people's sites and immediately start trying to hijack their readership. You didn't even bother saying hello e.g. by making a post in the Welcome Mat forum!

In fact, it is spamming the forum.

That is shocking, ffs it's pedal not peddle.

so what has 'not wearing the ideal kit' and 'improved his and his bikes visibility' got to do with him riding head long into a skip?

I think this must be the ideal kit they were referring to

Don't feed the :troll:

It was mid January and he left home at approximately 5:30am to cycle only a few miles to the local post office where he worked as a postman. He had his lights on, was wearing the appropriate clothing, his helmet was on and although it was dark there was no rain, sleet or snow. His brother did tell me that he his clothes were dark and he really should have improved both his and his bikes visibility.

Which is it?

In anycase slow down in crap conditions.

I'd better add that I was walking and not cycling!!

Should have been wearing a H***** ....

Should have been wearing a H***** ....

No I only do that on the bike. I should drink less tequila before attempting to walk

 

[Cuchilo]

It can be dodgy that drinking and walking combo !

 

[gavintc]

Yawn, what a lot of tripe - full of mistakes and unsubstantiated opinion. That is 5 mins I won't get back.

 

[vickster]

It can be dodgy that drinking and walking combo !

Probably would have been better cycling, at least I'd have been wearing a h*****

Thank you, Work Proxy Server! You prevented me from reading the blog .

"He could have improved his bike's visibility" ... then the skip would have magically levitated out of the rider's way? Really?
Ok then
