Just had a coming together of handlebars while riding down the towpath and sent my riding buddy into the Leeds Liverpool Canal. Oops! #cycling #BikeTooter

@pete ouch! Bit colder than the one time a #JoyRide participant did the same, but he just (somehow!!?!?) didn't spot the 90 degree turn at the Stanley Dock branch and rode straight into it. I was filming at the time, but sadly at the back of the pack so all we saw were the ripples 🤣 https://youtu.be/RmrACWs_g58?si=K-LOkP92mx__dZSz&t=513
