Watch for those potholes!
 
Just thought i'd upload some pics of my now ruined front end and my new metal plated collar bone after coming off at 55 thanks to the crappy road conditions of my area and some cornering.

The collar bone looks nasty. Hope you get back on a bike soon.

Can i ask though, what's with the huge pic of just your number plate? Where's the damage?

Thanks for the warning and......OUCH! Collar bones take a while to get "good as new", however it could have been quite a bit worse. Hope you recover quickly.
