Forum Rider Down and/or notification of minor incidents

Yeah the eye looks brutal but it's actually giving me no bother at all. I feel like an extra from a low budget zombie film, pretty fun!

Here’s my fractured scapula mentioned upthread. Four more weeks until anything approaching normality. Currently impossible to hold my arm out or lift anything at all. But biceps / wrists / hands movement all function so could be worse. Crunchy bits where the triangular bit of bone points in the pic is where the action is.

accident on burdett road, east london

happened just outside Royal Mail Poplar Delivery Office today at 11am

got left hooked by a van from the outer lane tried to overtake and made an immediate left turn into a premise. I slammed my brake but still ran into the back of van, flew over my bar and landed on my face.

Bruises here and there, stitches on my face, torn jacket, damaged helmet & broken garmin.

Another car was nice enough to stop, called the police & acted as witness. please may I ask anyone who witness the incident to get in touch? Thank you!

Good to hear you got a witness. Was it a Royal Mail van turning into the site (assuming you were going northbound)?

Heal up quickly!
