You are so right mate. The James Smith corner, Dixon St, Vivian street... they all line up as one J walkers run through. To outsiders, if you walk up Cuba Street, basically our main scene/shopping street, you will cross each one in turn. They are quite narrow streets so people do tend to cross when theres gaps in traffic. I am also guilty of having done this. I also initially thought it must have happened at the Cuba St/Vivian Street intersection but if it was another 50 odd metres on then its a crazy place to cross as the traffic is building up to the motorway entry . Poor person, unlucky rider and stuff the bike. Always replace those not never life nor remorse. I doubt the rider saw the person at all. Nice to see you are getting around OK P. Saw you outside the shop yesterday evening on the way home in the bus.
