Default Two go bouncing in Dartford or the monkey really is flexible

Hi folks,

...Was on way to work at 7.oo am this morn, came off at junction 1a of M25. A scaffold lorry suddenley changed lanes, i jput on the anchors, bike came away from me, bike hit the corner, ejecting me forward clipping a lamp post with my head, landing on my left side, skidded forward on pavement and bike landed on grass verge and on back of legs.

Only got away with a brocken collar bone and some brusing. the bikes scuffed down the left side, gear change snapped and small graze on left pipe.

Finally got home at 9 pm after waiting 5 hours for the AA by the carpark at the bridge....

so am looking for some new panals or gonna sell it....

sorry to hear that. glad youre ok, could have been so much worse and at least you'll heal quickly which is the important thing.

with broken collar bone werent you taken to hospital? werent the police called?

and get the bike checked thoroughly. you may have more damage than you realise from initial inspections unless you know what youre looking at unlike me that missed the airbox coming loose which Rictus spotted when he helped me fix things.

Argh nasty. It must be painful so I hope you get the shoulder mended quickly. Good luck with getting the bike sorted too, let us know how you get on .
