Ah yeah. More or less. I held the bike up, so, nothing more than the peg (and maybe the gear selector) got bent.) The cops were crawling, I was filtering, so retribution could not be dealt out.

So it goes amigo.

Now I know I am not a medic - but even my knowledge of anatomy is better than that (it must have been thanks to sleeping with so many medics in my student days!). Since when was your hip next to you neck? I would SERIOUSLY worry about your consultant!

I think of it as beating the waiting lists- you guys will all be breaking yours when you're 80, I've already got mine reinforced

Crazy stuff PhilipMac, could've been a lot worse too. I'd've got the cops...
