about 4 miles outside of letterk i was on a straight two lane road with verges, so i was on the verge minding my own business, and all of sudden i heard a car horn sound behind me and the car impact noise, i looked over my right shoulder and there were two cars mid-crash screeching past me, about 2ft off my right elbow; one with its front end ploughing into the drivers door of the other which was half sideways at this point sliding under the weight of the car ploughing into it. the guy who was doing the ploughing managed to wrestle his car free and career into the ditch on the right, which was about 3 ft lower and led into a field. i was sure he was going to roll over but he landed in soft ground and the car just rolled to a halt. the other car careered into my path and stopped up ahead of me. the ploughing guy drove out of the field and pulled up beside us, so the three of us ended up on the verge. in retrospect i wish i'd punched both of them for driving stupid (they were definitley speeding before the impact, and had to be half way into a retarded overtaking sequence) and smashed their cars up a little more and give them a lecture about cyclists not having quite the same resilience to impacts as cars do, but i was a bit shocked so i just asked was everbody ok and cycled on. boy racer idiots can fuck off.
