C/w coccyx add-on!

Keep it from your mind, chap. It could happen any where at any time, bike, car, home, office, whatever.

I've another friend who was hospitalised for months when he mashed his right leg falling off his bike when stationary.

Mind you, that was partly self-inflicted as he would have been able to get his feet out of the clips if he wasn't, as Dr Spooner may have said, as kissed as a punt.

Indeed, hopefully my mind will be empty for the descents after the climbs have left me barely alive.

Drink, bikes, and clipless pedals, a perfect oportunity to go wrong.
