Bike crash but I'm alive
Went out on my bike this morning & was cruising along about 3 car lengths behind the car in front doing around 35mph when some blind **** in an old Golf pulled out then saw me & stopped right in the middle of the road. I did my best to stop but knew I was going to T bone the car, I stepped up on my footpegs & went over the handle bars onto the bonnet & then across the road, I ended up in on coming traffics way so I carried on rolling until I hit the kerb. When I went over the bars I didn't quite clear the tank & hit my groin real hard, It literally feels like I've been kicked in the sacks by an Elephant 3 times & to say it aches is a Massive understatement. My leathers armour & back protection saved me though.
Whilst laying on the floor waiting for the ambulance I asked the **** how the **** didn't he see a 6ft 5 inch guy wearing a Brand new hi vis vest, He just said Sorry & he didn't see me. He has put his hands up though & told the Cops I wasn't speeding or owt & he just didn't see me & pulled out, Gutted about my bike though. The witnesses & locals that helped me were unbelievably lovely, One sat with me & another came down & took my bike round his back garden for safety, The Ambulance crew were superb & Leicester Royal A&E were not only quick they were lovely to me as well. So Big Thanks to all the helpers & healers. I've been x rayed for a suspected broken/fractured pelvis but all is well down there just some heavy bruising/tissue damage. The weird thing about all this is just how damn good I feel I think I have Survivor Joy. + And Yes it is a cool story Bro considering I'm alive/still in one piece |
