Yes, he's doing ok, but he's off the bike for a couple of months.

Who went down? My supply of get well cards is getting low.
Don't know their names, the guy was English and wearing Rapha.

Touching some n00b who's freaked out and cornering badly already isn't going to make him correct his line, and it could be a recipe for disaster. And furthermore, touching other riders deliberately is against the rules. Keep your hands to yourself.
Pfft.

I wouldn't touch anyone in a corner, both times it was on a straight.

I'm not a shouter but if you're veering into me without looking, I'm going to let you know I'm there.

If I had a nickel for every time someone responded in a thread just to comment on my helmet hair...
