Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.

I can see that there is one brand new bike collector iis being created. You are probably saving up now for one of the IF bike at the end of the year?

BTW, is there a gear shift in the front crank?

Qwerty, sorry to learn of your accident Sad Hope you have a speedy recovery. Take care.
             To all riders be alert and be on the defensive all the time even when we have right of way.

I had a feeling that my efforts at safety in cycling may not have much effect at all.

From what I gather, it seems like you will probably need at least a week or 2 of recovery (and this is after seeing a good bone setting chinese physician) Do take care.

what is happening to the guy?
I hate it when pedestrians ignore you. I seem to attract aunties to stand in front of me when I cycle on orchard road, each time I stop at the crossings. They are like "please run over me from the back" kind. But I dont have the heart. Their cruchy bones might puncture my tires. LOL.
So I let them go first, after all I can overtake them once I reach the other side of the road easily.
