Horse Price list not available. Open to negotiation. ;) The 'price' (figure of speech) in this case was a painful foot and scratched bike, which could have been avoided. As we've said earlier, hindsight is a wonderful thing and can help us learn. I'm sure we've all learnt things from these dissectio...

I chose to go over the handle bars rather than rear end her 4x4 because the last time I did that (purely my fault that one) cost a lot of pain and money.

So a complete mess of a filter move.

Some interesting thoughts guys. Here's what I commented when this was shared elsewhere. I don't think it was deliberate. Hmm, filtering is allowed, however you still have to look after yourself. Why would you position yourself so close that if the car creeps forward (and a lot do) that it runs over ...

You can't move to the front of the queue as it's a lights controlled pedestrian crossing
