no but in plymouth there are little slabs that run along side the kerb and then the kerb. now these little slabs stock right out and will kurb the fuck out of my wheels.
see the extra kerb type slab thing in that pic
and you can just see the edge of my wheels stick out due to the stretch

I always get as close as possible so as to not inconvenience others, and whilst doing so I kurbed a wheel for the first time ever last night, grrr
It was a weird kerb, it has a tall kerb which was the one I was following and a small one I didn't see, so when I turned in for the big kerb I got a nice scraping sound and wondered what the fuck it is. Gay
