[MrCheerful]

Non viable transport coupled with riding too fast for the conditions
causes major injuries, luckily (or not) she was wearing a helmet.

A statement from the ladies section of Boston Wheelers, said: “This
level crossing is at an angle with very wide gaps in between the metal
rails. The wheels got caught in between those gaps causing Sarah to be
thrown off her bike into the air, landing with first impact to her head.”

The following pack were unable to avoid Sarah as she fell. Many suffered
shock, cuts and bruises in the ensuing pile-up.

Quite evidently too close and too fast, hazards such as level crossings
should always be crossed with care, and it is just common sense to not
follow another vehicle till it has safely crossed. Rule 291 covers this
quite clearly.

How on earth did the unfortunate lady's head contact the ground first?

Surely it's impossible?

Hope she's OK.

Incidentally, do the Boston Wheelers call themselves a cycling club?

They say: "...she ‘could have been killed had she not been wearing a
helmet’.

The lightweights.

All dedicated cyclists know full well that helmets cause injuries and do
not protect cyclists at all.

I see the cycling group are guilty of blasphemy:

"..... the group say she ‘could have been killed had she not been wearing a
helmet’........."

I can see the psycholists in this group exploding with rage when they read
that.

Level crossing attacks cyclist.
Priceless!

M'Lud explained the physics once. Perhaps you missed it?

I do apologise. I should have stressed that Peter Keller prefers himself,
and other psycholists, to be known as ****wits.

And I have no intention whatever of making myself look better in your
eyes. That would be pointless. After all I ride a bicycle as very
useful convenient economical delightful viable transport for many things.

Indeed: the last line of the OED definition of psycholist:

A common pseudonym for a "psycholist" is "****wit".

Thank you very much for that great compliment spewed out by you.
Now please ejaculate to me the further honour especially from you of gob-
kissing gleeking flap-mouthed coxcomb. That would really make my day
cumming from you.
