Seriously, if your were, then you would surely have had enough time to stop the bike effectively wouldn't you??? Are you sure there wasn't a tad bit of poetic licence used in the fact set mate???? :lol:
All information completely factual! :)

Thankfully didn't actually "step off", just as I was coming past the very back corner the truck swung over. Managed to stop no problems but as I was already so close when he swung over the ¼ to ½ a second it took me to react I was already about a metre up beside him and therefore sans mirror :(

Its a bugger about the damage to the new bike Shifty, but thankfully you aren't injured!

What I can't work out is why they get so shitty. It's not as if it's going to slow them down. That said I have been know to to make the distance between me and the gutter fairly tight when I've got some dickhead on a pushy coming up the inside during peak hour.

Hey guys, just caught this thread.

Sorry to hear of the bike damage Shifty and Rusty. :(

Glad you are both ok though! :)
