Ambushed on the cycle path this morning!

Thanks everyone, and yes, I know these kinds of things can (and do) happen everywhere -- tacks on the road even in the Tour de France!

Police report just no help here -- the police are close to worthless on most of the big crimes, and for something small like this, way out of town and where there were no witnesses, it wouldn't do any good, trust me. They aren't going to go up there to the boonies and lie in wait to see if it happens again. Just not worth my time and life energy.

I'll heal, but I am not looking forward to riding up there again. Sad thing, it's the best riding area on the island.

Oh, man. So sorry that happened to you - glad neither of you is badly hurt, and hope you heal up soon.

Somebody was prosecuted a few years back for doing that after a rider I believe died, or at least was very seriously injured, but I know it was in the USA and I don't recall exactly where. People are such a-holes.
