Bad luck mate! Always aches more the day after! Here's hoping you get it all sorted out quickly.

I'm pretty good considering. Left toes are a bit sore, right knee is only sore if I touch it. My right arm is the one that is bothering me, but I am at work living it with it. But all things considered we came out pretty good... ish...

I'm told the bike is a lot better than it looks, I haven't had a good look at it. I know it goes on a straight line because I rode it home after the incident. So I shall be scouring for bits and pieces soon. I will have a full list when I go home tonight and take her apart.
