Would’ve liked this to come out a lil’ better, but only had access to MS Paint at uni, should’ve brought the Mac in.

So ahhh, just for the record this alleycat is for no reason other than a bit of fun. If people want the winner to take the money then they can, if people want to buy jugs at the East with it they can, if people wanna give it to “the guy that binned it into a cement truck and made it almost impossible to ride/work on a brakeless fixie in melb cbd atm” then they can. If people wanna give Lane the money so he can pay the fines he’s getting then feel free. THIS IS NOT A BENEFIT ALLEYCAT.

my understanding was that he was stationary or just starting to move, and the truck just veered into/over him. nothing to do with brakes, more to do with blindspots.

lolCatz…

Off topic, though I have noticed bike/car cops slamming dudes for being brakeless a lot more, getting stung a 100 bucks or so whenever cvntstable whatever sees your biked parked at a building because he thinks your endangering him, everyone else, yourself, small mammals, whatever is not for the win ☹ Would be nice to hear from the dude to find out what ACTUALLY happened and why he couldn’t get out of the way.

Sadly I can’t smash out the race, will be out of town, have fun and go hard though…
