to leave the road and "fly" into a forested valley missing various trees, amazingly the occupants
walked away injury-free. Anyway, the police closed the road. As the narrator mentioned this a
cyclist (roadie by the look of him) cycled along this closed road looking a bit bemused. The
narrator added, "Almost."Colin

methadone.Quoted message said:

that one ... a bloke on a cannondale. -

DESERVE to loose it! -

They should _expect_ to lose it. That doesn't mean they _deserve_ to.

I was just confused about what weapons had to do with it?! If you've got weapons, you should use
them against the muggers?Finally, i'm backwards Boyle, but i'd prefer 'slow' as the description next time 😉
