Got doored in July by stationary HGV; battered and bruised all over but that's just one example.

Go on then! First icy day last year, guy in front goes down on ice I'd nowhere to go so hit him, sending me over the bars and landing on my left shoulder. Not a scratch on me, my bike or my gear. The resulting broken collar bone has left me with two scars - one where they put the plate in and one where they took it out again four months later.

Got one of those!

I had a mountain bike accident whera a tree jumped out in front of me ...... NOT my fault you understand.

I had a fractured clavicle, three ribs, skull pelvis and 2 hip fractures


... but I got better!

I'm not letting our lass read this thread, she'd make me ride 24 hours a day she'd never let me ride again

This means I can't post my postage stamp sized elbow and knee pics.......
Do I get points for unmarked, broken ribs?

Broken femur - pic shows fracture after it was removed three inches out of my pelvis - took three nurses to pull it out...

Tyre Blowout at 20mph whilst in a fast right hand turn, 8 weeks ago, started riding a bit this week looking to commute next week. Elbow took the full impact dislocating shoulder hence lower arm brusing

Painful! Putting a dislocation back by the "quick" method - even more painful!

Horrible, a neighbour had the same thing happen and it could hardly be described as amusing - all the best for a good recovery - just go steady and build up gently - being fit helps a lot as things mend a little more quickly.

Next years early season races will be a good marker of any losses, hopefully not too much.

It may not look too gory from the outside but underneath is a broken collarbone- the sling around the neck is supporting the other arm which was broken at the elbow. All healed now thank goodness!
