I’m alive! I’ve ‘won’ a big ankle haematoma thing, a big fat leg where a car drove into it (which is already going a reet funny colour), a destroyed helmet, a destroyed bike, a massive lump on my head, tendon damage (or something) in my shoulder…but I’m alive.
Always wear a helmet folks.
I was sh1tting myself about the suspect fracture, but thankfully it’s not as serious as the ambulance guy was making out…
The driver stuck around long enough for us to exchange details as well as pleasantries. Loads of witnesses, inc. bloke who’s car I landed on, his car was a bit broken after I nutted it.
Bike currently in the back room of a shoe shop in Oldham. I almost can’t bear to look.
Doc reckons 6 weeks to recover. Balls to that 😉
The traffic copper who came to the hospital for a natter rides a Ragley Mmmbop, which was a nice coincidence. We chatted about Lee Quarry for a bit whilst my drugs kicked in.
