She got knocked down - but she got up again

QUOTE:

"A CYCLIST who suffered horrific injuries in a road accident near
Melton is riding 10,000 miles from China to England to raise money for
the air ambulance which helped save her life.

Triathlete Charlotte Roach (22) was run over by a car while on a
training bicycle ride in Gaddesby in 2009.

Charlotte, who suffered multiple injuries including spinal damage and
two punctured lungs, is very grateful to the Derbyshire,
Leicestershire and Rutland Air Ambulance and Leicester Tigers
rehabilitation physio Julie Hayton, of Gaddesby, who helped save her
life.

And now Charlotte has already set off on her gruelling 10,000 mile
cycle in the hope of raising £7,200 for the air ambulance. It will
take her about six months to complete her journey.

Oh dear, oh dear - yet another Simple own goal:

"The 23-year-old was cycling with fellow Olympic hopefuls from the British
Triathlon squad, based at Loughborough University, when a collision with the
bike in front sent her into the path of a Land Rover." 2009



Funny you were only commenting yesterday about how safe it was riding up the
arse of a JCB - comparing it to riding 6 inches from your mates while racing on
the public highway.

You are very good value you know.

Simple Simon Mason - who cycles at 25mph in 20mph limits just because the limits do not apply to cyclists.
This includes exceeding the speed limit past three schools. A total disregard for the well-being of vulnerable road users.
The actions of a true psycholist.
