On my ride into work today some tosser decided to get abit close to me as he passed and clipped my handle bars with his mirror sending me flying, luckily only grazes and a buckled front wheel, but the guy who did it didnt even stop it was only the guy behind him that gave me a hand but noone got his plate.

Then just to top it off when i got to work i opened up my lovely new Macbook Pro to find the screen was now cracked! Brilliant!

I presume there was no local CCTV that could of spotted the culprit leaving the scene of the crime..?

And, as this is pistonheads, what car was it that hit you?

I didnt even get a look at the car as I went went head first into the ground then my glasses came flying off.

I have reported it but was almost pointless as when it came to the describing the car I didnt have a fking clue, it was'nt the good start to my day specially as I found out my contents insurance doesnt cover my Macbook for damage away from home only theft!! So having to claim off my Mum's contents insurance now!

As above, report it to the coppers. Maybe there is a chance of tracing this individual - cameras are everywhere nowadays.

Good luck

Sorry to hear this. All too common, loads of tw@ts out there.

I got knocked off by a bus a couple of years ago and he didn't stop either. Kind of stupid because I saw red mist, got back on the bike and chased after him, catching him at a bus stop along the road. Luckily in my case no major damage to me/bike.

Woke up today with some really nasty neck pains, and I can't even claim off anyone!
