Had my first meeting with the tarmac today.
Heading down a cycle lane a car swerved left into me rather than slow down when they saw something in their way up ahead. Side swiped me and sent me sliding down the pavement.
Fortunately no real harm done, just a few bruises, and I think the driver was more worried than I was.
A lesson to all, please check your mirrors and look out for cyclists!
Just for your entertainment I've included some pics of the bruises and scrapes.
