Hi Rui. Good luck my friend. I am also a cyclist and the cars don't seem to care. More and more cyclists are becoming victims of this. Hope that you get well real soon.

Yes what is happening with Rui any news ?
It's not how fast you get there it's how you look when you arrive.

Just spoke Rui!

He is back at home but still in a lot of pain. He says that he a sore all over and in a lot of discomfort,but glad to be home as it could have been a lot worse.

A woman hit him, (TWICE!) in the yellow lane while riding his bicycle, but I'll let him tell the story when he feels well enough to log on again.

Relax boet and a speedy recovery! :drunks:
Damn,I'm good!
