Was on the way home tonight and at just before 6pm I saw an ambulance on Nicholson St and I assume that something had happened to a cyclist as one of the ambos was taking the front wheel off a bike so that it would fit in the meat wagon. The bike was a blue Cannondale hybrid with racks fitted and I am sure that I have seen it before as it has cow horn handlebars on with really big padding under a normal wrap of bar tape (this is the bit that stands out in my memory).
The bike didn't look to be damaged so I am not sure what might of happened as it was on a straight section of the road and nowhere near any sidestreet.....maybe the poor guy/girl got doored??
Any of the Melbournites in here know what happened??

Haven't heard or read anything on the grapevine yet, although after yesterday I wouldn't be too surprised if a stick or random [censored] could of flipped into spokes. I saw a large part of a old peppercorn and several oompa loompas go horizontal past the windows while at work at about 2.30pm yesterday. 😉
