Good luck! .. been there (the bike-related stitches in the chin bit). It's not great, is it? Just be prepared to mentally go off into your 'happy place' while they do the nasy... all soft flowers, pixes and lovelyness. (You'll be fine.)

It helps, believe me.

Yep, got 8/9 stitches in my chin, hope you don't have a beard to shave off like I did... And remember, chicks dig scars and scars are story's for life!

where theres blame, there is usually a claim, just think ew bike , new helmet, and cothes, along with a nice lump sum.

For a while forget the bike, sort out and worry about your face... Bikes can be replaced.

X-ray, 5 stitches & a tetnus jab.
Not exactly my idea of a great Friday night but could have been worse.

Bike inspection in the morning could be grim....
