Could post this under thread about helmets...Had a typical ride home from a meeting at work..But, It seems stuff always happens to me under freeways in Temecula..
It seems this interchange just does not like me...Motorists are usually jerks under the 15 bridge.
New event today...I was under the overpass...Heard a clanking up above ... Something , I think fell off of a passing truck..The clanking...It looked like a large wrench hit a freeway rail...It was...Came down about 10 feet away...A pipe wrench about 8 inches long...Hit the pavement with a loud thud.. Would my helmet have helped? How could this happen. ?
We don't get rain here..It just rains pipe wrenches..Sort of freaked me out as I heard it fall. And I had my better road bike,too.
