Thanks. The helmet was a Carnac from Planet X. Only damage to the bike that I am able to see are som scratches on the pedals.Hope you make a full and speedy recovery and dont suffer to much pain, Just as a mater of interest what type of helmet where you wearing it certainly done its job very well ?
Or not? Without wishing to start another helmet debate, the thing cracked without the OP even being aware of hitting his head. So the crack might have been caused by a glancing blow from a wasp prior to the fall; and without the extra weight and bulk of the helmet the OP's head would probably not have come into contact with anything (if indeed it ever did).Just as a mater of interest what type of helmet where you wearing it certainly done its job very well ?
My bad crash my helmet had a dent/scrape too so feel it did some good. They certainly are only really of use in specific types of falls.Or not?

Hi when I say I didn’t even know that I had hit my head I should clarify.Or not? Without wishing to start another helmet debate, the thing cracked without the OP even being aware of hitting his head.
