You might say it was a large pebble

but I think it was a small boulder.
It was a large rock in the middle of the road as. I was coming round a bend, I think I target fixed it and then hit it, threw me up in the air and out of my saddle, but I managed to save it.
More expense.

Blimey. That could have been a nasty off. Well done on the save, but I think you might need a new wheel......

I think I got off quite lightly, so I can't really complain.

Youch.!
Very well done keeping hold of that one NFC, I've seen kerb damage do less harm than that pebble of yours.
There's a few rims up on evilbay currently, or are you going to offer the work to Motoliner.?

Nice save surprised you managed to stay on , not 100% but before plumbing for a new rim someone may able to get that out maybe worth asking your trye man.

I should be getting it picked up middle of next week, will know if it can be repaired or needs to be replaced.
RAC picked it up but said I was not covered as it was a potential write off, so had to pay for it, thats one membership I shall not be renewing.
