Arg! Coming home on my normal commute, overtook someone, thought nothing of it, brake for a pothole (couldn't go round, traffic) and bang!

Turns out the guy was sucking my wheel, I've braked he didn't and he's gone flying, I stayed upright.

Checked he's OK (he was shaken, but no blood etc.) he's then stared to have a go at me for braking...

Called him a pratt and headed home. Turns out he's bent my wheel and rear hanger :sad:

I'd probably done more that have called him a pratt. Hope your bike is easily fixable. Is it a replaceable rear hanger or an integral one?

Blaming you was uncalled for.

In my mind, karma will be restored tonight when a giant sinkhole opens up underneath his car (probably a BMW) :evil:
