I got hit by an Audi driver the other week, he was very well manered appologetic*, wanted to give me his address incase I wanted to claim for injury if it got worse etc, etc. Decided agaist it as on ballance I had a bruised little finger and I'm guessing his wing mirror was blooming expensive so he'll have learn't his lesson!

*TBH my first instict was to leg it knowing how angry people can get and i wanst seriously hurt.

“Nah its not dented. I think the two white guys I hit...were more bruised and dented. Not a scratch on mind.”

Racist intent?

Id like to express my side of the story in regard to the tweet made about the cyclists in Richmond Park. Yesterday around 7pm. I was with few of my mates whom had my phone unknowingly and tweeted that particular tweet as a “joke”. First and foremost, nothing stated in the tweet is true in the slightest. Secondly, as a avid cyclist myself who cycles to work twice a week, I would never commit such crime nor indulge in it. However, since the twitter account is mine. I accept full responsibility for my mate’sstupid actions, which has come to this. I also send my sincere apologies."

That's a quote that has been added to the bottom of the story.

fair enough. A bit of a silly thing to do but glad no one has really been hurt.

Or he's in a panic and he thinks that will make it all go away.

Suppose we only have his word for it though.

Why would you block your account rather than just post that the last few tweets were your friends messing around and to be ignored?
