Dumb cyclist was me this morning.. TWICE!!
First, exiting the Kwinana freeway PSP at the mount st overpass, another cyclist sitting right by the exit (for those that know this spot you will probably agree not the smartest place to be sitting.. but not a big deal) so I went a little wider than usual - too wide, put front wheel into the dirt and then rather than simply unclipping and pushing the bike out for some reason tried to muscle the bike out of the dirt.. result: Clipstack into the dirt
Had to laugh.. My first clipstack, at least it was into a garden bed rather than into a car!!
Second, only a few minutes after the above.. Filtering between cars up to the Mount St/St George's Tce intersection (only a couple of cars.. left lane going straight, right lane turning) and I misjudged slightly, bumped the mirror of one of the cars.. Stopped immediately to apologise to the driver who was perfectly gracious about it and not at all bothered, no harm no foul (no damage to anything, just had to flick the mirror back into postiion).. Ended up deciding to go down the footpath instead anyway as traffic was building up on the other side of the intersection and I didn't like the idea of being sat in the middle of a relatively busy intersection with traffic going in both directions past me so the whole thing was COMPLETELY unnecessary and just plain silly on my part!!
Add to the above my rear cassette skipping through middle range resulting in me having to mash away in top gear pretty much the whole way in and today was "just one of those days" I think!!!
