 Ray was in the right area though.  It is in fact the carbon fibre steerer tube of one of my push bikes. The thing snapped this morning whilst I was going over a roundabout    I suppose the only good thing is that it happened this morning. I have a 100 mile time trial on Sun and sods law says this would have happened at the furthest point of the course, and/or whilst riding at a normal speed. I was only doing about 8mph at the time this morning so the grazes are pretty minor. Oh and having to cough up over £200 for a new fork wasn't something I was planning on this weekend either.
