Just had a coming together of handlebars while riding down the towpath and sent my riding buddy into the Leeds Liverpool Canal.

@meganL … this is the mate who a couple of years back messaged me to tell me he’d broken his back coming off his bike while I was, unbeknown to him, lying immobilised in hospital having broken my neck in the same manner over the same weekend.
Old enough to know better, young enough to get away with it! -
@FourT4 We commented afterwards on just how well it floated. BB was sounding a little ropey by the time we’d rode home though. Kinda half-creak, half-squelch.

@pete ouch! Bit colder than the one time a #JoyRide participant did the same, but he just (somehow!!?!?) didn't spot the 90 degree turn at the Stanley Dock branch and rode straight into it.
I was filming at the time, but sadly at the back of the pack so all we saw were the ripples

@pete @FourT4 I once tried riding through some floodwater that was over knee deep. Wheels lost traction, so I stopped and tried to dismount, and the bike kept floating up as I tried to lift my leg over.
I had to strip the wheels once I got home, there was still water sloshing around in the hollow rims.
