sore bum
so i'm driving up whitehall towards trafalger square on my way to work this morning. there's a few guys preparing to do some roadworks or something - they've laid cables accross the road, encased in one of those black strip things so vehicles can drive over. except this particular black strip thing is massive - at least 3 inches high! and i didn't see it until it was a foot in front of me, at about 45mph...
*bang*! i got thrown right up out of my seat! ouch. serves me right for going a little bit too fast, i guess. hope the bike's alright. on the plus side, at least i wasn't the only one - this guy on an old suzuki something did exactly the same thing, about 2 yards in front of me!
