How to do an epic fail in the notoriously narrow Cooks River underpass

2 Sep, 2018 - 8 years ago - on Canterbury Road

Been through here a thousand times - but I day dreamed, caught the handlebars and was smacked sideways into the concrete wall. Lost a bit of skin on the concrete and wrenched my shoulder pretty nicely.

This is one of the stupidest and most useless bits of infrastructure in Sydney.
