BREAKING CLUB NEWS : Injury Report
Posted by Doug on 2010/7/22 8:10:00 (180 reads)
BREAKING CLUB NEWS

Two Nowra Velo members were injured while training yesterday.

Bruce Jenkins was flattened by a dog on the Back Forrest Road yesterday afternoon with the result:
collar bone broken in three places and two broken ribs. The bike is ok with just a few scratches.

Cameron Pel had an altercation with a motor vehicle and has soft tissue damage to his shoulder and neck. The bike was a write off.

It's a dangerous place out there. Stay alert and stay safe.

Definatly getting worse. Fearless was cleaned up by a car failing to give way at a give way sign this afternoon. slight damage to hip but im ok. Bike has stuffed front wheel, rear derailer & tip but hasn't had close inspection yet...
Had 2 bright flashing lights on front & 3 on rear. 2 other cars & same intersection said you couldnt miss me, i was brighter than an xmas tree, but this lady did. It was raining but visability was good.
Be safe, Be seen.

Glad to hear you are OK Fearless.
Things are definately getting worse out there. I had a near miss on Terera Rd on Tues morn with an idiotic oncoming driver overtaking another car and squeeeezing me off the edge of the road. Thankfully no contact or damage.
Take it easy people. - stay alert.

 Re: Injury Report
Patto and I were out yesterday on Yalwal Rd and had an arrogent truck driver blast his horn at us purely because we were using the road. He then decided it would be funny to give me less than 1/2 metre clearance when he went pass me. Rather scaring experience and completely agree with the comments that it is getting worse out there. It's getting to the stage where riders are finding it difficult to get through town or a training session without having an incident with a motor vehicle.
