I ALMOST DIED :O

Was on my bike weaving in and out of people at speed. Had to use body weight to bring myself back into the left when going round the right of one person, this pushed my front wheel out from under me.
It happened quite quickly so i didn't stop pedaling (my savior i think). The front wheel had slid to the left about a meter, then due to still pedaling the back wheel starts spinning up and moving to the left also.

I JUST DRIFTED A BICYCLE :eek:

Bearing in mind I'm going about 15-20mph I've drifted for about 3 meters then it stopped drifting and luckily there was no kick! I carried on pedaling. I really hope the people saw it and were in awe

Would have been quite an embarrassing low side though

Also, yes my boxers are now brown!

I read that first line and it raised my hopes of this being a story of facial disfugurement through grinding visage against cold, damp ground.

My hopes were not fulfilled.

This is a uni campus. Also if you pedestrians just carry on in your usual route then it's fine. Also can you keep of the cycle paths!

You should have stopped pedaling then you might have had a bicycle highside

You never know. Maybe the ground was covered in foot long spikes?
