Had my first visit to the inside of an ambulance on Sunday evening, courtesy of a sudden stopping car. Turned out the car had some kind of mechanical failure causing it to stop much quicker than normal. I clipped my friends back wheel as she bashed into the car and flew through the air smacking it with my back. Not sure my helmet made much difference, but it did keep my head off the road as a I lay there wondering if I\’d be able to get up (once I\’d stopped my manly screaming).
Seem to be in once piece now, but very stiff….

Bikes OK, friend OK, I\’m quite battered as I took the brunt of the impact as my bike didn\’t hit the car. Dr reckons I\’ve not broken anything so it\’s just a matter of ibruprofen and waiting it out. Supposed to be going on a mountain bike holiday in a few weeks tho!
