Got taken out by a kid on a scooter today. He and his mum had run across the other side of the road in front of a car, they then stopped at a pedestrian island. Just as I was going through the road narrowing he decided to whizz out in front of me. I braked and hit the scooter, and flew over the top of the kid. Wheel fucked, tyre burst open, bruised elbow and hip, pulled/torn adductor.
I can ride ok, but can barely stand up or walk as all the damaged muscles are stretched out when standing and used to lift my leg up.
