Heading back into Otley today down bradford road and there is a great Q of traffic. So i tootle past em, only to notice that at the front is a lot of flashing blue lights. Nasty crash involving at least 2 cars... At front are 2 busses and a couple of cars. I decide that i'm stopping behind them as Mrs on the back is not keen on the sight of blood and looking at the glass, plastic and metal stroon all over the road its not going to be a nice sight.
So after a min this luvly fireman (Mrs words not mine...) starts walking up the road towards his truck, looks up and see us, so rather than getting in he ambles up the road and has a natter saying well if you want you can try the footpath, but hope that the police don't see you, other than that you had better turn round as its going to be a long wait.... And you will end up with a punture...
With having the Mrs on back i decide not to risk the path and turn round. Fireman ambles back to truck and sets off.
Now he never said a word to any of the cars in front and i thought what a great guy as he could just have got in truck and set off, as i was prepared to wait a while.
Ain't riding a bike nice when folks take the time to talk and ignore all the metal boxes ;D
