So... after having had a nice ride in an ambulance this morning to get to work, after a car decided to turn left through me, I'm just assessing the damage to myself and my kit.
Oh, and I'd like to say what a great job the ambulance crew did.. they were excellent with me, and were a good laugh too! Police seemed to be pretty good too, and it looks like they have given the driver a summons to court(?), to go speak to a judge/magistrate about what happened, but has admitted liability.
Still feeling pretty shaken up, but don't have the adrenalin pumping like I did earlier, and my knee is now starting to throb and not feel too great. Got a nice bruise coming up on my arm as well... and am sure I will ache like a bugger later! Anyway...
Bike - looks okay, but gonna get this checked over by a bike shop at the weekend.
Helmet - again, looks okay, don't really remember hitting my head, but I did land in a good heap on the floor.
Jacket - looks like it might have remained unscathed, but will check it later.
Shorts - have a little damage on them.
Tights - brand new Endura Stealth, first ever ride... grrrr... looks like they might have been holed.
Pannier - seem to be fine, I think that probably cushioned the bike quite a bit in the crash... thankfully my lunch survived in tact as well!
So, what's reasonable to be asking for here? I'm thankfully not badly injured, although I am a little concerned about my knee at the moment, so probably ask for that to be assessed by a physio... which is good, seeing as I have just finished seeing one for my achilles on the other leg!
