yes - whilst cycling around the world - follow the link in the signature and got to page "day 350 (part 2)" and unless you have a strong stomach, I suggest you don't do this whilst eating. it was mostly 1 bite that needed all the stitches, severed a major artery, severed a major nerve, punctured a major vein and left me with some muscle damage - I can now cycle around 45 miles without too much problem (assuming I continue with the 90 mins physio each night that it needed, I just can't walk very far. Now almost able to get around the weekly shop if we stick to only the isles we need in a medium sized supermarket. So I don't work yet - can't and not entitled to any help and get nothing whatsoever) and we pay for all my physio after being refused in on the NHS... incident happened outside the UK and they have not been interested). I am now at college twice a week on adult course which thankfully cost very little, doing something useful with my time and commute once a week (22 miles) to my physio appointments hence 3 commutes, 2 days and then I do what I want in between which is mostly staying fit because of my asthma and the fact I like cycling (good thing given I tried cycling around the world)
