Glad you're alright, hope you heal up soon.
I wasn't wearing a helmet when I got knocked off a month ago. Lost a day of my life due to concussion.
I wear one now.

You have any pictures of the helmet? That is an example of what a helmet is supposed to do, most pictures you see of helmets after a crash show the helmet has failed to do the job its supposed to do i.e. cracked with no compression. If it cracks it is absorbing sweet.f.a. energy.

Hi Alan...........it all sounds a bit gruesome!........I drive all the time for work (mostly around Plymouth) but I cycle lots in the lanes.
BECAUSE I cycle...I am always very conscious of cyclists when I drive-but I am constantly horrified by how libertine some drivers are when I'm on the bike!
PS. PM me if you are interested in a 'Spoon' saddle? (used once and didn't suit me) I could (possibly) drop it round.
Anyhoo.......good luck my friend and keep taking the pills?

I'm sure they probably did unfortunately and stopping would mean they'd have to admit guilt (not even legally just to themselves). Some people are scum and the chances are they'll probably do it again on exactly the same stretch of road not realising how hurt you are.

Took the splint off of my little finger last week , it`s f**k*d cannot bend it too far or make a fist. Was actually thinking of going back into Martial Arts training , Muay Thai, but if I cannot make a fist then i`m bolloxed . Will have to see if I can get some physio to get it more mobile.
