Default Can I have the Yellow Jersey?

Filtering through traffic on my way to work yesterday morning I went for a gap that wasn't quite as wide as I thought.

Grazed my leg, my knee slider was ripped off (but thankfully remained hanging by a thread). Haven't assessed the bike for damage yet, but it's probably a write off

Sounds like it's all yours!

Sorry to hear this Stu. Err congrats on becoming the first Yellow jersy double nominee this year!

Any gratuitious photos of bike damage and further details? Was this the SV or ZX7, or were you on a push bike with knee sliders?

But I've only had the shirt for a week


I shall return home after work and pickup said shirt.


Good to see you're not too badly hurt, you can join Messie in the motorbike sandwaich club now

Er ... hang on a bit!

Shurely it can't be that easy

I think this needs a bit more debate.

Sounds like a crash, do we need to know the damage details to decide?

Maybe the Yellow Jersey should be like Belts in Boxing.... win it three times and you get to keep it (and make a new one up for the next person )
