Re: Achtung Pheasant attack or was it a snail?

Andrew and I discussed the incident shortly after it occurred and vowed to secrecy…a pact that appears to have not even lasted a day!

To say I was unscathed would be highly misrepresentative of the truth.The mental scars will live with me for many years to come…the appalling look of the irreparable injury…..I’ve never seen the contents of a carbon fibre spoke before..oh yes Andrew had a bit of a graze too…..didn’t seem to slow him down though for rest of our lung-busting ride…..we were not overtaken by any further molluscs!

Thanks Andrew for a great ride…but I’m taking the evening off tonight..I’m supposed to be in temporary retirement
