Manchester - Llandudno 25 April 2015 featuring the Inaugural Hill Climb Sausage Challenge

[Pale Rider]

Right. Collar bone broken one end and detached from sternum the other. Bruise/contusion the size of Halifax on my right hip. Lots of pain and lots of analgesics big bruise on head/face, some skin gone.

A&E thought would be treated with a sling, but spoke with orthopedic in last half hour who says it needs plating. Op tomorrow morning. Just being spoiled in a ward with four nurses, eight beds and just one patient....me!

Ten out of ten for your stoical attitude - I would be feeling a lot sorrier for myself.

Where did you come off?

I didn't pick up any major route hazards when on the recce with Nick.

Countess Cheshire. None of your riff raff infirmaries. Apparently duty surgeon tomorrow is a a clavicle expert. It's all about timing....

GWS @Cubist . your bag is on the way to you now.

Ooo eck, short term memory loss.

No doubt you will be fine, but it's good you've got medical assistance on hand.

Bloody hell. Dangerous these road bikes you know. Stick to the MTB. Hope you get sorted - I assume hospital not near home ?

[Cubist]

Had a nice day out on the bike today - thanks all. Shame about the weather but you win some and you lose some! .I bailed at Rhyl due to a text about some family trauma but it turned out not to be too bad after all. Got on the train with @Origamist and we had a most pleasant chat. Nice fella. Bad news about @Cubist. Does having a # clavicle make you a 'proper' cyclist I wonder? Anyway, nice to see some familiar faces and also put faces to some forum names. Thanks for organising @nickyboy.

 

[theclaud]

I bailed at Rhyl. The main group should be close to Llandudno by now.

Thanks for organising, nickyboy. Good job. Nothing you can do about the weather!

GWS, Cubist.

Schoolboy error. The best bit was after Rhyl. Shame you had to go through Rhyl to get there...
