Cycling north up the Epping Rd. this evening I got a whack on my right arm.
I was going at quite a speed so lost control but managed to make my landing
on the soft stuff at the left verge. Thought it was a wing mirror but didn't
see which vehicle it was as I was too busy falling off but it didn't stop. A
lady stopped and asked if I was alright and offered to take me home (my home
;-)) with bike in the boot. After checking myself and my bike I found only I
had an aching side but nothing serious but pretty annoyed . As I was about
to set off again a van stopped opposite and the driver said a passenger had
leaned out and deliberately pushed me off and he had chased the car and got
the number. So witness and I to the cop shop to give details and obtain a
crime number. Common assault was mentioned but I don't expect the sod will
get more than a caution if found. I know I would do the same but I am glad
these two people were around.
