Frankly I can't believe how undamaged it is. just scuffed up the bartape and one side of the seat a little bit. The back wheel was a little off center but to be honest i wouldn't be surprised if it was like that before the crash knowing evans (especially the one in gateshead.. they couldnt believe i was thinking of riding it on the street!).
Compared to my injuries: pedal shaped imprint in right shin (except vertical, so i was horizontal to the bike when i received it...), grazes on both knees + elbows, huge graze on my right shoulder and a small one on my left, grazes on the right side of my head and the side of my right ear closest to my head, a buggered right collarbone/shoulder (still cant move it properly) and a sizeable concussion. Got a Head Injury Card from hospital, going to use it as a spoke card methinks. Judging by my track record it may actually come in useful in the future.
How come toe overlap isnt a problem? what if i need to turn a corner? :(
