| 1324751 | 2013-01-25 08:05:00 | When I was about 11 or 12 I was riding on the footpath and a kid ran out in front of me and I hit them. I was going fairly fast and all I got was skinned knees. Another time we were biking to the pictures and a sheep ran out in front of me which I hit and again I got skinned knees but my left knee blew up like a basket ball. We lived 3 miles out in the country and used too bike to school and also to the pictures. No helmets in those days. :) |

| 1324752 | 2013-01-25 18:12:00 | I hit a guy on a bike once. New Lynn intersection, he went through the red light and I got him. He wasn't badly hurt, I had just accelerated so wasn't up to speed. But he didn't have a helmet on and was knocked out. Ambulance came, they went on about the helmets. he was OK - just got concussed, but still, could have been worse.... |
