Cyclist down - Me!

[GetAGrip]

Blimey, what a moron that driver is! Heal quickly Sarah, and hope you're back out on the road very soon .
Really hope justice is seen to be done for you (and everyone else as well I guess) regards getting the v. dangerous driver off the road.

Dear God! Are you fingernails OK?

 

[Sara_H]

Dear God! Are you fingernails OK?

Yes, thank goodness. And despite one of my shoes being knocked off in the impact my sunglasses remained perched on top of my head! Didn't budge an inch!

 

[GetAGrip]

Your sense of humour didn't budge either!!

 

[Archie_tect]

Glad to hear you aren't badly injured Sara... is your bike fixable?

 

[Saluki]

Yes, thank goodness. And despite one of my shoes being knocked off in the impact my sunglasses remained perched on top of my head! Didn't budge an inch!

How do sunglasses do that?

Have the police been in contact with the driver yet?

 

[RedRider]

What a rubbish thing to happen. All the best with everything, including a new handbag.

 

[tadpole]

Get well soon.

 

[glasgowcyclist]

Let me add my best wishes for a speedy recovery (both you and the bike) and decent penalties for the driver.
Have a Glasgow hug. (Don't worry, it's not like a Glasgow kiss)

The police officer who visited me said she was planning to call on the driver today. If I'm honest, for various reasons that I can't yet divulge, I doubt this will end in a prosecution unfortunately.

OH has taken it to the LBS this morning. Front wheel and mudguard definitely need to be replaced, he'sgoing to give it a good check over and do a report/estimate.

I've made contact with CTC, they're sending me a small claims court pack for bike damage and am waiting for a call back from someone re: injuries.

That sucks. Tell us why when you can.

Will do. One thing is lack of witnesses. Two people who actually witnessed the collision would stay and give details. Didn't want to get invoved. Unfortunately didn't have my camera on board as I don't have a mount on the Brompton.
