Alliston went on to say he did not stand by an internet post under his username CharlieF***ingA that he made shortly after the crash.
In a post on a news website, Alliston said the crash was not his fault as he had shouted out to warn the pedestrian, but she acknowledged his presence then "proceeded into the road and looked back at her phone".
He originally thought Mrs Briggs was on the phone because he saw the handset after the collision, the court heard.
He told police: "At the time I was still in pain and barely recovered."
Alliston denied he was riding dangerously, saying: "I would not say it was dangerous if they were looking.
"I wasn't messing around. I was not on the phone day-dreaming.
"I was paying attention to what was going on around me."
The trial was adjourned until 2pm on Wednesday.
